Finding Information With The Access Ibm Program - Lenovo ThinkPad X30 2672 Supplementary Manual

Finding information with the Access IBM program

The blue Access IBM button can help you in many situations when your
computer is working normally, and even when it is not. At your desktop,
press the Access IBM button to open the Access IBM program. The Access
IBM program is your on-board computer help center that brings you
informative illustrations and easy-to-follow instructions for getting started and
staying productive. You can also use the Access IBM button to interrupt the
startup sequence of your computer and start the Rescue and Recovery
workspace (Access IBM Predesktop Area on some models). If Windows does
not start correctly, press the Access IBM button during the startup sequence of
your computer and start the Rescue and Recovery workspace. Use it to run
diagnostics, restore your backups (assuming you have made backups using
the Rescue and Recovery program (Rapid Restore Ultra on some models)),
restore the hard drive to the original factory state (ie, what was there when
you received your computer), start a utility that enables you to change your
startup sequence, and get essential system information, and start the BIOS
Setup Utility where you can check and change BIOS settings.
Press the Access IBM button to open the application that brings all of
ThinkPad's resources to you. On the next page, you will see the Welcome
page of the Access IBM program, which provides an overview of the major
features.
