How to use your partitioned drives
In order to avoid mishandling or malfunction of your software and files, please take
the following precautions:
To optimize data storage, use the C: drive to install new applications, and save all
your documents to the D: drive. Moreover, doing so will prevent the loss of your
documents in the case you need to perform a system recovery.
Do not try to add, delete, or resize partitions unless you really need it. Changing
partition settings might delete all your files on the hard disk.
If you need to perform a system recovery, but do not want to loose all the data
stored on your hard disk, copy all the files you want to keep on the D: drive.
During the system recovery process, choose to keep the current partition
information. Doing so will keep your D: drive unchanged after the recovery
process. For more information on the recovery process, see the chapter "Using the
Product Recovery CD-ROMs".
If you do need to change the size of your partitions, you can do so by performing
a system recovery. In this case, it is important to note that all the data on your hard
disk will be deleted. If you need to keep existing files, be sure to backup them up
before performing the system recovery. For more information on the recovery
process, see the chapter " Using the Product Recovery CD-ROMs".
