Recovering the system with modified partition sizes

To have the option of changing the partition sizes before completely restoring the original software, drivers and
settings on your computer, choose Custom Drive Recovery.
Changing the partition sizes of the two hard drives means that you will lose all the data stored on both your C: drive
and your D: drive.
You should allow one hour for the recovery process.
To perform a Custom Drive Recovery, proceed as follows:
1 Select the button next to Custom Drive Recovery.
2 Click Next.
You now have three options:
❑
Default System Drive Recovery (see "Recovering the system without changing partition sizes" on page 27).
❑
Change Partition Size and Recover.
❑
Factory Default Settings Recovery.
