Software program and hardware driver reinstallation

If any of your factory-installed software programs or hardware drivers are damaged, you can reinstall them by using the Recovery Manager program (select models only).

NOTE: Do not use the Recovery Manager program to reinstall software programs that came on CDs or DVDs included in the computer box. Reinstall these programs directly from the CDs or DVDs.

Before you uninstall a program, be sure you have a way to reinstall it. Check to be sure that it is still available from where you initially installed it (for example, discs or the Internet). Or check to be sure that the program is in the list of programs you can reinstall from the Recovery Manager.

To check the list of installable programs in the Recovery Manager:

1.From the Start screen, type r, and then select Recovery Manager. If prompted, select Yes to allow the program to continue.

2.Under I need help immediately, select Software Program Reinstallation.

3.Select Next at the Welcome screen. A list of programs opens. Check whether your program is there.
