Nec Os Restore Cd - NEC POWERMATE 2000 Service And Reference Manual

NEC OS Restore CD

Use the NEC OS Restore CD to restore the system to its original factory state if
a problem occurs that causes data loss or corruption. The NEC OS Restore CD
provides options for a full system restore with factory-installed software or for a
restore with only the operating system and drivers. A full restore loads all the
factory-installed software.
If you select to restore only the operating system and drivers, you can use the
NEC Application and Driver CD to select the software you want to load on the
system. See the previous section, "NEC Application and Driver CD," for
information on using the Application and Driver CD.
Before starting, we recommend that you first contact NECC for assistance (see
Section 8 for contact information).
Use the following steps to perform the OS Restore with the bootable Master
