Recovering from Recovery Media
If the recovery area data has been corrupted or erased, you can use Recovery
Media to recover your VAIO computer.
However, recovering the computer using the Recovery Media will take longer than
using the recovery area.
1. Insert Recovery Media (optical discs) into the optical disc drive or connect a
USB flash drive to the USB port on your VAIO computer while the computer is
in Normal mode.
2. Turn off your VAIO computer.
3. Press the ASSIST button to display the VAIO Care Rescue Mode screen and
select Start from media (USB device/optical disc).
Follow the on-screen instructions until the Choose an option screen appears.
4. Select Troubleshoot, then Recovery and maintenance.
Follow the on-screen instructions until the VAIO Care (Rescue Mode) :
Recover or maintain your system screen appears.
5. Select Start recovery wizard.
6. Follow the on-screen instructions.
Hint
If the display language selection window appears, select your desired language,
then OK.
To perform custom recovery, select Tools and Start advanced recovery
wizard.
If you cannot recover your VAIO computer using the USB flash drive, connect
the drive to another USB port on the computer, and then try recovering the
computer again.
