4. Erase Backup Partition

This option will simply erase the 1.5 to 2 GB Backup Partition and make this

space available for your data. It will not create any tool to restore your

system.

Before using this option, we recommend you to either create a

copy of the backup partition on a Master CD or on a network

drive.

When selecting this option, a new window will be displayed with two buttons:

With Network: If you choose this option, the system will assume that a

copy of the Backup Partition already exists on the network and will ask

you to select the mapped network drive where the backup partition has

been saved.

This button can be used in the following situation: you have for instance

ten identical systems connected to your network. Use the Network Recov-

ery from Backup Partition option on one of those systems to copy the backup

partition on a mapped drive on your network. Erase the Backup Partition

on the nine other systems using the With Network button as described in

this section. If you need to restore the whole configuration or only some

software or hardware elements of one or several of the ten systems, launch

the Recovery Program or Smart Restore. These programs will use the

Network Backup Partition you created.

Without Network: If you choose this option, the program will assume

that you intend to use a Master CD to restore your system. Next time you

will use the Recovery Program or Smart Restore, you will be prompted

to insert the Master CD.

This is the option to use if you want to free some space on your

hard disk drive and plan to never use the Recovery Program or

Smart Restore.
