Using the Product Recovery CD-ROMs

Performing a system recovery

Use this option only when your system is seriously damaged, e.g. if Windows
not work any more, or your PC behaves abnormally, etc. The system recovery will
completely reinstall the originally configured system on your C: drive. Your D: drive
data will not be deleted if you choose to keep the same partition settings. If you decide
to modify the size of your partitions, the existing data on both drives (C: and D:) will
be deleted.
!
Applying a system recovery means that you will lose all your data stored on your C: drive (and your D: drive if
you modify partition settings). Therefore, before applying a system recovery, copy your data to an external disk.
!
CAUTION: make sure that your computer is connected to AC (not the battery) before you attempt a system
recovery.
!
CAUTION: when the recovery is performed, you must remove the recovery CD-ROM from the drive before
restarting the computer. If the CD-ROM is still in the drive, you will restart a recovery process.

The recovery process takes between 10 to 20 minutes to complete.

You must run the Application Recovery CD (vol. 2 of 2) from Windows
When performing an application recovery, you do not lose data on your hard disk.
