Solving recovery problems

If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment, you can:

vUse your rescue media (CD, DVD, or USB hard disk) to gain access to the Rescue and Recovery workspace. See “Creating and using rescue media” for details.

vUse a Recovery Repair diskette to repair the Rescue and Recovery workspace or repair a file needed to enter the Windows environment. See “Creating and using a Recovery Repair diskette” on page 41 for details.

vIf your intent is to restore the contents of the hard disk to its original factory state, you can use a set of Product Recovery discs. See “Creating and using product recovery discs” on page 37.

It is important to create a Recovery Repair diskette, rescue media, and a set of Product Recovery discs as soon as possible and store them in a safe place as a precautionary measure.

If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment from rescue media, a Recovery Repair diskette, or a set of Product Recovery CDs, you might not have the rescue device, CD drive, DVD drive or USB hard disk drive defined as a startup device in the BIOS startup sequence. See “Setting a rescue device in the startup sequence” on page 42 for more information.

Creating and using rescue media

Rescue media such as a CD or USB hard disk drive enables you to recover from failures that prevent you from gaining access to the Rescue and Recovery workspace on your hard disk.

Note: The rescue disc, the first disc of the Product Recovery discs and the backup discs are startable (bootable). They can be started in any type of CD or DVD drive except for a DVD-RAM media.
