Appendix D Using The Product Recovery Cd-Rom - Avid Technology Unity LANserver EX3 Setup Manual

Appendix D
Using the Product Recovery
CD-ROM
You might need to reinstall the Windows 2000 operating system on your
LANserver EX3 if you are directed to do so by Avid Customer Support, or if
you are initializing your LANserver EX3 from scratch. The reinstallation
offers you two options:
t
Perform a Windows 2000 installation to the entire drive (C: and D:). This
replaces all of the data from all the available partitions on your
LANserver EX3. You can perform this operation if you are initializing
your LANserver EX3.
t
Perform a Windows 2000 installation to the 1st partition (C:). This
removes the data in the C: partition only; the D: partition is not changed.
You can perform this operation to replace only the operating system on
your LANserver EX3.
n
This procedure restores only the Windows 2000 operating system and the
hardware drivers. It does not restore the MediaNetwork software. The
MediaNetwork software must be reinstalled separately, after the operating
system recovery is complete.
