Restoring Your Pre-installed Software

The Drivers and Applications Restore (DAR) CD contains:

■Sets of device drivers and Fujitsu utilities (in specific directories) that are unique to your LifeBook note- book configuration for use as documented below.

■A link to the Drive Image Special Edition (DISE) utility on your hard disk drive.

■Read-me files that provide additional use information for items on this CD-ROM.

■In order to install applications and/or drivers from the DAR CD, you will need to connect an external CD drive to your system.

■If the DAR CD is in the drive when you boot up the system, and the Boot Sequence is set in the BIOS to boot from the CD drive first (see “Creating a backup image when booting up” on page 63), a message will appear inform- ing you that if you proceed, you will have a choice of: creating a new backup of drive C:, restoring a previous backup, or restoring the original factory image.

Note that creating a new backup will overwrite any previous backups, and restoring a backup or factory image will overwrite all information on the hard drive, including saved files. If you wish to install drivers or applications only from the CD, remove the disk from the drive, reboot the system, and insert the CD after Windows has started.

If you have access to the internet, visit the Fujitsu Support web site at http:// us.fujitsu.com/computers to check for the most current information, drivers and hints on how to perform recovery and system updates.

DRIVE IMAGE SPECIAL EDITION (DISE)

PowerQuest Drive Image Special Edition (DISE) provides a way to restore your computer if you experi- ence a hard disk crash or other system failure. Fujitsu has used DISE to create an image of everything installed on the computer at the time you purchased it. The image is saved on a separate partition on the hard disk. You can use DISE to restore the factory image and return your computer to the state in which it was shipped from Fujitsu.

T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g

Although it is not necessary, you can use DISE to store additional image files that you create. For example, if you install several applications and save data files on your hard disk, you can create a new image file that includes them and then save that image file on the hard disk. Then, in the event of a hard disk failure, you can restore the image that includes the applications and data files you use.

Using the DISE feature will reduce the amount of usable disk space on your hard disk drive.

Creating a Backup Image

You can create a backup image of your C:\ drive at any time. The C:\ partition must be a FAT, FAT32, or NTFS partition, and it must be directly before the backup partition on your hard disk.

There are two ways to implement the DISE utility: When booting up the system, or from the desktop.

Creating a backup image when booting up

Before creating an image at boot-up, you must first change the boot-up priority in the BIOS so that the system will go to the media drive first, rather than trying to boot-up from the hard drive or an external floppy disk drive.

To change the boot-up priority:

1.Start your system and press the [F2] key when the Fujitsu logo appears. You will enter the BIOS Setup Utility.

2.Using the arrow keys, go to the Boot menu.

3.Arrow down to the Boot Device Priority submenu and press [Enter].

4.Arrow down to the CD-ROM drive in the list, and press the space bar (or the + key) to move the CD- ROM drive to the top of the list. (The system attempts to boot from the devices in the order in which they are listed.)

5.Press [F10], then click on [Yes] to exit the BIOS Setup Utility and return to the boot process.

After you have changed the boot priority, you can create a backup image when you are booting up:

1.Install the DAR CD in the drive prior to booting up. When bootup begins, a message appears informing you that if you proceed, you will be able to:

■Create a new backup of drive C

■Restore a previous backup, or,

■Restore the original factory image.

Note that creating a new backup will overwrite any previous backups, and restoring a backup or factory
