To Create A Restore Point - Sony VGN-AW21M/H Troubleshooting Manual

To create a restore point

What is a restore point?
A restore point is created automatically, for example when installing a
software driver, and used to restore your computer system files to a previous
state. Even though the restore point is created automatically, it is
recommended to create the restore point manually before installing software
or a software driver on your computer because your computer may become
unstable or slow after installing new software or changing the Windows
settings. If you have created the restore point when the computer is working
normally, use the restore point to restore the system files to the previous
state.
To create a restore point manually
1 Launch VAIO Recovery Center (see page 14).
2 Select Windows Backup and Restore and click Start.
3 Click Create a restore point or change settings on the left pane.
4 Click Continue in the User Account Control window.
If you are currently logged onto your computer as a standard user, enter

5 Click the System Protection tab in the System Properties window.
6 Click to select the check box next to the drive for which you want to create
a restore point under Automatic restore points.
