System Recovery

System recovery completely erases and reformats the hard disk drive, deleting all data files you have created. System recovery reinstalls the operating system, programs, and drivers. However, you must reinstall any software that was not installed on the computer at the factory. This includes software that came on CDs included in the computer accessory box, and software programs you installed after purchase.

You must choose one of the following methods to perform a system recovery:

￿Recovery Image — Run the system recovery from a recovery image stored on your hard disk drive. The recovery image is a file that contains a copy of the original factory-shipped software. To perform a system recovery from a recovery image, see “System recovery from the Windows 7 Start menu” on page 63.

NOTE: The recovery image uses a portion of the hard disk drive that cannot be used for data storage.

￿Recovery Discs — Run the system recovery from a set of recovery discs that you create from files stored on your hard disk drive. To create recovery discs, see the next section.

Creating recovery discs

Complete the procedure described in this section to create a set of recovery discs from the recovery image stored on your hard disk drive. This image contains the operating system and software program files that were originally installed on your computer at the factory.

You can create only one set of recovery discs for your computer. Furthermore, the recovery discs you create can be used only with your computer.

Choosing recovery discs

To create recovery discs, your computer must have a DVD writer.

￿Use DVD+R or DVD-R blank media to create your system recovery discs.

￿You cannot use DVD+RW, DVD-RW, DVD+RW DL, DVD-RW DL, DVD+R DL, DVD-R DL, or CD discs to create recovery discs.

Use high-quality discs to create your set of recovery discs. The verification standard for the recovery disc creation process is very high. You may see error messages such as Recording failure when writing disc or Error detected during disc verification.

Your discs may be rejected if they are not defect-free. You will be prompted to insert a new blank disc to try again. It is normal that some of your discs may be rejected.

The number of discs in the recovery disc set depends on your computer model (typically 1–3 DVD discs). The Recovery Disc Creator program tells you the specific number of blank discs needed to make the set.

The process takes some time to verify that the information written on the disc is correct. You can quit the process at any time. The next time you run the program, it resumes where it left off.

To create recovery discs

1Close all open programs.

2Tap the Start button, All Programs, Recovery Manager, and then tap Recovery Disc Creation. If prompted, tap Yes to allow the program to continue.

3Follow the onscreen instructions. Label each disc as you make it (for example, Recovery 1, Recovery 2).

4Store the recovery discs in a safe place.
