Restoring the pre-installed software from your created

Media you have created to restore the computer to the state it was in when
you originally received it. To perform this restoration, follow the steps
below:
User's Manual
Do not use on an unstable surface such as a stand.
Select either blank disc or USB Flash Memory.
The application will allow you to choose from a variety of different
media onto which the recovery image can be copied including disc
media and USB Flash Memory.
Please note that some of the disc media may not be compatible with
the optical disc drive connected to your computer. You should
therefore verify the optical disc drive supports the blank media you
have chosen before proceeding.
USB Flash Memory will be formatted and all the data in the USB Flash
Memory will be lost when proceeding.
Turn on your computer and allow it to load the Windows operating
system from the HDD/SSD as normal.
Insert the first blank disc into the optical disc drive tray, or insert the
USB Flash Memory into one available USB port.
Click Desktop -> Desktop Assist -> Support & Recovery ->
Recovery Media Creator.
After Recovery Media Creator starts, select the type of media and the
title you wish to copy, and then click the Create button.
When you reinstall the Windows operating system, the HDD/SSD will
be reformatted and all data will be lost.
Please make sure that the Boot Speed is set to Normal. (To access it,
click Desktop -> Desktop Assist -> Tool & Utilities -> System
Settings -> Boot Options.)
