Prepare To Recover - Gateway MT6704h Starter Manual

prepare to recover

When you first get your computer, it is a good idea to make a backup of the software that came
with your system. Before you create this "recovery disc, " make sure that your computer has a
recordable drive and that you have blank discs ready. Depending on the type of recordable
drive you use, you'll need either several CD-R discs or one DVD-R or DVD+R disc. CD-RW,
DVD-RW, and DVD+RW discs will not work.
(Start), Gateway Recovery Center, then click Factory Recovery
To create the disc, click
External Media and follow the on-screen instructions. When prompted, choose either Create
System Recovery Discs (makes a backup of applications and drivers) or Create ISO image
(creates complete system backup). Make your selection, then continue with the on-screen
instructions.
