Restoring Your Operating System

You can restore your operating system in the following ways:
• Microsoft Windows System Restore returns your computer to an earlier
operating state without affecting data files. Use System Restore as the first
solution for restoring your operating system and preserving data files.
• Dell Factory Image Restore (available in Windows Vista) returns your hard
drive to the operating state it was in when you purchased the computer.
The program permanently deletes all data on the hard drive and removes
any programs installed after you received the computer. Use Dell Factory
Image Restore only if System Restore did not resolve your operating
system problem.
• If you received the Operating System media with your computer, you can
use it to restore your operating system. However, using the Operating
System media also deletes all data on the hard drive. Use the media only if
System Restore did not resolve your operating system problem.
Using Microsoft
The Windows operating systems provide a System Restore option that allows
you to return your computer to an earlier operating state (without affecting
data files) if changes to the hardware, software, or other system settings have
left the computer in an undesirable operating state. Any changes that System
Restore makes to your computer are completely reversible.
