You can reinstall software titles that shipped with your computer if they
are corrupted or accidentally erased. You may not need to recover the
entire contents of your hard drive. If you experience a problem with your
computer, reinstalling an individual device driver or software title may
correct the problem.
Use the Application Recovery CD(s) to reinstall individual applications
or device drivers. See "Using the Application Recovery CD(s)" on
page 49.
The System Recovery CD(s) contains a backup copy of the all the
software originally installed on your hard disk drive. It can be used only
to recover the hard disk of the Sony computer you purchased.
The System Recovery utility gives you three options:
Full Restore without Format restores all the software titles that
originally came with your computer without formatting the hard
disk.
Full Restore with Format formats the hard disk drive and then
restores all the original software.
Operating System Only formats the hard disk drive and restores the
Windows operating system and the device drivers that shipped with
your computer. This option is recommended for advanced users only.
