Finding information with Access IBM
The blue Access IBM button can help you in many situations when your computer is working normally, and even when it is not. At your desktop, press the Access IBM button to open Access IBM. Access IBM is your on-board computer help center that brings you informative illustrations and easy-to-follow instructions for getting started and staying productive. You can also use the Access IBM button to interrupt the startup sequence of your computer and start Rescue and Recovery™ (Access IBM Predesktop Area on some models). If Windows does not start correctly, press the Access IBM button during the startup sequence of your computer and start Rescue and Recovery. Use this area to run diagnostics, restore your backups (assuming you have made backups using Rescue and Recovery (Rapid Restore Ultra on some models)), restore to factory contents (ie, what was there when you received your computer), start a utility that enables you to change your startup sequence, and get essential system information, and start the BIOS Setup Utility where you can check and change BIOS settings.
Press the Access IBM button to open the application that brings all of Lenovo’s resources to you. On the next page, you will see the Welcome page of Access IBM that explains what each part of Access IBM holds to help you.
