Before you select [Make DVD], be sure you have a recordable DVD drive connected and blank DVDs available.

Using the Recovery and Utility Tools

The Recovery and Utility tools consist of a variety of tools that will help you recover your Factory Image,
recover system images, and delete the data from your hard disk.
Methods for accessing the utilities
Recovery and Utility Tools are preinstalled in a hidden partition by the factory, or they can be accessed by
using the bootable disc. Please note that you can delete Recovery and Utility tools from your hard disk
drive if you modify the partitions. In this case you will not be able to use the hidden partition for booting
to Recovery and Utility Tools, but you will still be able to boot from the disc.
Determining whether Recovery and Utility is pre-loaded
Turn on or reboot your system. When the Fujitsu logo appears, press [F12] key.
