Using The Product Recovery Cd-Roms; Performing A System Recovery - Sony PCG-R600HEP Software Manual

Using the product recovery CD-ROMs

Using the product recovery CD-ROMs
The set of Product Recovery CD-ROMs supplied with your computer allow you to perform a full system
recovery, and help you reinstall individual applications or the device drivers manually.
The system recovery process allows you to reinstall an image of the hard disk as it was before you started
using your notebook.
Perform a System Recovery in the following cases:
In the event of a serious system crash.
If you want to modify the size of your partitions.
Perform an Application Recovery if you need to:
Reinstall an individual driver if a device is not functioning properly.
Reinstall an individual application if you have problems running it.

Performing a system recovery

Use this option only when your system is seriously damaged, e.g., if Windows
your PC behaves abnormally. 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.
When performing a system recovery, you can opt for a Standard Recovery or an Advanced Recovery.
When choosing a Standard Recovery, you leave the current partition sizes untouched. When choosing an
Advanced Recovery, you can adapt the partition sizes.
You can only use these product recovery CD-ROMs on the Sony notebook you purchased and not on any other Sony PC or other manufacturer's PC!
To perform a system recovery, your docking station should be disconnected.
The recovery process can last up to sixty minutes.
