Restoring the preinstalled software

If preinstalled files are damaged, use the Product Recovery disk or the
TOSHIBA Tools & Utilities CD-ROM to restore them.

Restoring the complete system

To restore the operating system and all preinstalled software, follow the
steps below.
When you reinstall the Windows operating system, the hard disk will be
reformatted and all data will be lost.
1. Load the Product Recovery CD-ROM in the optical media drive and
turn off the computer's power.
2. Hold down the F12 key and turn on the power. When the TOSHIBA
logo appears, release the F12 key.
3. Use the left or right cursor key to select the CD-ROM icon in the
displayed menu. For details, refer to the Boot priority section in
Chapter 7, HW Setup.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.
5. If your computer came with additional software installed, this software
can not be recovered from the Product Recovery disk. Re-install these
applications (e.g. Works Suite, DVD Player, Games, etc) separately
from other media.

Restoring TOSHIBA utilities and drivers

If Windows is working properly, individual drivers or applications can be
separately restored. Use the Tools & Utilities CD-ROM according to
instructions in the booklet contained in the CD box to reinstall TOSHIBA
utilities and drivers.
