6200 Series Notebook PC

3.1 Using the Recovery CD

The Recovery CD is a compact disk that records the sources of operating system and important data and can be used to restore the hard disk to its original state. When the operating system of your computer is damaged and can not work properly any more, you can use the Recovery CD to re- sume the system in its original state.

Resuming the Operating System

To resume the operating system from the Recovery CD:

1.Connect the AC adapter and turn on the computer.

2.Insert the Recovery CD into the CD/DVD-ROM drive.

3.Press the [Del] key on the keyboard to enter the BIOS Setup Utility when the system boots up.

4.In the BIOS Setup Utility, set the CD/DVD-ROM drive as the first boot device (see Boot Menu in Chapter 5). Then, save the changed setting and exit the BIOS Setup Utility to continue the booting procedure.

5.Choose to restore the operating system from the Recovery CD when prompted. Then, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the procedures. The system will reboot automati- cally when completed.

6.The system will resume the factory default settings after reboot.

7.After resuming the operating system, you should reactivate the operating system as like the first time to use the computer (see Activating Your System later in this chapter).
