Important Information - Sony VGN-AR61E Troubleshooting Manual

In case of virus attacks, computer malfunctions, or accidental erasure,
prepare the following in advance:
1 Recovery discs
It is strongly recommended to create recovery discs immediately after
your computer is ready for use because there are no recovery discs
provided with the computer. For instructions on how to create the
recovery discs, see "Creating your own recovery discs" on page 18.
2 Backup copy of your data
Recovering your computer system will delete all the data previously
stored on a hard disk. Be sure to make a backup copy of your data
before recovering the computer system. For instructions on how to
make a backup copy of the data, see "Backing up and restoring your
data using Backup and Restore Center" on page 20.

version of Windows Vista via Windows Anytime Upgrade, the original
