The Product Recovery Program contained within this area enables you to restore the complete contents of your hard disk to the same state as it was when originally shipped from the factory.

If you are using the recovery discs that are shipped with your computer, the Product Recovery Program will be restored to your computer in addition to all other content originally shipped from the factory. This will take up additional capacity on your hard disk if your computer did not initially ship with the Product Recovery Program.

￿Attention:

ƒAll files on the primary storage drive partition (usually drive C) will be deleted in the recovery process. However, before any data is overwritten, you will be given the opportunity to save one or more files to other media.

ƒIf your optical drive is not attached to your Lenovo computer during recovery, DVD software and CD-recording software will not be installed. To ensure that they will be installed correctly, install the optical drive before performing a recovery operation.

ƒRecovery takes several hours. The length of time depends on the method you use. If you use recovery discs which you have created or purchased, recovery takes at least five hours.
