NEC VERSA E6500 Series User Manual page 87

Before using the NEC Recovery Program it is recommended that you FIRST try fixing your
computer with Windows Vista
System Restore can be used to restore your computer to a previous state when it was known to
function correctly, without affecting your personal data files (such as documents, browsing history,
drawings, favourites, or e-mails).
The NEC Recovery Program Allows Two Types Of Recovery:
• Full Recovery
Removes all your personal data and restores your notebook to its original factory state. By
using this option, all your data will be lost (personal documents and settings, drivers updates,
etc.)
• Partial Recovery
Restores your original operating system and software to their original factory state without
deleting your personal data.
After recovery, all software titles that you have installed on your computer must be reinstalled
before you can use them again. Only the pre-installed titles such as DVD Players and CD-
writers will function without additional installation.
IMPORTANT
Please read this section carefully before using NEC Recovery Program!
• Backup your personal files:
Save a copy of your personal documents onto floppy disks, memory cards or high capacity disks. If you
own a CD writer, you can backup larger amounts of data and create your own archives.
• Return your computer to its original configuration:
1. Remove any additional hardware components (such as sound cards, video cards or network cards) that
you may have added to your computer.
2. Reinstall the original NEC hardware components if you have removed them.
3. Make sure that your keyboard, mouse, monitor and speakers are connected properly (if applicable to your
computer).
Disconnect any additional devices that you have connected to your computer (such as scanner or printer)
4.
