Restoring Your System Image And Software - Fujitsu LifeBook M2011 User Manual

Restoring Your System Image and Software

Copies of your system images, applications, and drivers are available in two locations:
Hard Drive-based Factory Image: The original factory image of your system is stored in a hidden
partition on your hard disk drive in order to ensure that it is not inadvertently damaged. For instructions
on restoring the factory image, please follow the instructions in the "Recovering Your Factory and System
Images" manual that is bundled separately with your system.
Hard Drive-based Drivers and Applications: On your desktop, there is a Backup Drivers & Apps icon
that allows you to back up and restore your drivers and applications by first backing them up to a disc on
an external drive. You are strongly encouraged to make a backup of the drivers and applications in
the event of hard disk failure. The drivers and applications DVD ISO image is stored on the D: partition
(D:\Fujitsu\Drivers and Utilities Image). Please ensure that you do not delete the image before creating
backup media. Note that in the event you need to reinstall any drivers or applications, if you have not made
a backup of the drivers and applications you will need to download them from the Fujitsu Support website:
http://www.computers.us.fujitsu.com/support.
For more information on backing up your drivers and applications, please follow the instructions in the
"Recovering Your Factory and System Images" manual that is bundled separately with your system.
