To Use the Application Recovery CD(s)

The Application Recovery CD utility enables you to reinstall individual software applications if they become corrupted or are erased. Reinstalling an individual software application may correct a problem that you are experiencing with your computer or specific application. You may not need to reinstall the entire contents of your hard drive.

If you need to reinstall all of the software that shipped with your computer, use the System Recovery CD(s).

You must be in Windows to run the Application Recovery CD utility. If you have any questions about using the Application Recovery CD(s), contact Sony Customer Support at 1-888-4-SONY-PC.

Using the Application Recovery CD(s)

1Turn on your computer. If your computer is already on, save and close all open applications.

2When the Windows desktop appears, insert the Application Recovery CD into your computer’s optical drive. The Application Recovery utility loads automatically.

If your system is equipped with two optical drives, insert the Application Recovery CD into the upper optical drive.

3When the Application Recovery menu appears, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the recovery process.

Your system may include one or more Application Recovery CDs. If you have more than one Application Recovery CD, insert the first CD to run the Application Recovery utility. You may be prompted to insert the next CD(s), depending on the software application you wish to restore.
