Notes on Recovery
Read the following notes thoroughly before recovering your VAIO computer.
Important notes on recovery
Recovering your VAIO computer will delete all the data on the built-in storage device
and restore all the settings to the original factory settings. Make sure you have a backup
copy of your valuable data.
Disconnect all peripherals from your VAIO computer except the power cord, the AC
adapter, or devices required for recovery before recovering the computer.
Do not stop the recovery process until the process is complete.
If you have forgotten the password and cannot start the recovery process, contact an
authorized Sony service/support center to reset it. A reset fee will be charged.
Notes on software
Recovering your VAIO computer can restore only the preinstalled software. The software
that has been installed on your own or the data you have created since purchase
cannot be restored. In addition, you cannot restore only Windows.
Certain preinstalled software includes options that allow the applications to uninstall or
install themselves. However, the software may not work properly on your VAIO computer
if such options are used.
Installing software to modify partition sizes may disable recovery or Recovery Media
creation.
