You do not have to restart your computer immediately, but you cannot access the recovered disk or
partition until you do.
As soon as you restart the computer, you must start DiskSafe Express and back up the recovered disk

Recovering a System Disk or Partition

To recover a system disk or partition using the recovery CD:
1. Using the appropriate procedure for your system, configure the computer to boot from the CD-ROM
drive.
2. Insert the recovery CD into the CD-ROM drive.
When responding to the prompts, use the arrow keys to highlight the desired item, use the space bar
to select or clear options (an X appears in the brackets when the option is selected), and press Enter to
make your selection. You can also tab between fields.
3. When the hardware list appears, select the network interface card (NIC) that you want to use when
recovering the data, and then select Next.
In most cases, there will be only one NIC, and you can simply select Next.
This screen displays only the NICs on this system that are supported by DiskSafe Express. If no NICs
appear on this screen, you might need to install an appropriate network driver. Select Load Driver,
select the location from which you want to install the driver (Load From System for the local hard disk,
Load From Floppy for a floppy disk drive, or Load From CDROM for a CD-ROM drive), insert the
disk in the drive (if loading from a floppy disk or CD-ROM), and respond to the prompts. For informa-
tion about obtaining the appropriate driver, contact your vendor.
To see a complete list of the detected hardware, select Rescan. When you are done viewing the list,
select OK.
4. Review the settings for your NIC and select Next.
The recovery CD obtains the IP address to use from your DHCP server. If the displayed settings are
not the ones you want to use, or if no IP address is displayed, select Config and specify the desired IP
address or subnet mask. (If you make a mistake typing either the IP address or subnet mask, select
Disable to clear the displayed information.) Then select OK and select Next.
