Performing a recovery
Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or restore the system if you experience system
failure or instability. Recovery Manager works from recovery discs that you create or from a dedicated
recovery partition on the hard drive.
NOTE:
Windows has its own built-in repair features, such as System Restore and driver roll-back
capabilities. If you have not already tried these features, try them before using Recovery Manager.
NOTE:
Recovery Manager recovers only software that was preinstalled at the factory. Software not
provided with this computer must be downloaded from the manufacturer's Web site or reinstalled from
the disc provided by the manufacturer.
Recovering from the recovery discs
To restore the system from the recovery discs:
1.
Back up all personal files.
2.
Insert the first recovery disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
3.
Follow the on-screen instructions.
Recovering from the partition on the hard drive
