Solving recovery problems

If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment, you can:

vUse your rescue media (CD, DVD, or USB hard disk drive) to start the Rescue and Recovery workspace. See “Creating and using rescue media” on page 54 for details.

vUse a Recovery Repair diskette to repair the Rescue and Recovery workspace or repair a file needed to enter the Windows environment. See “Creating and using a Recovery Repair diskette” on page 55 for details.

vUse a set of Product Recovery discs if you want to restore the hard disk drive to its original factory state. See “Creating and using Product Recovery discs” on page 51.

It is important to create a Recovery Repair diskette, rescue media, and a set of

Product Recovery discs as soon as possible and store them in a safe place.

If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment from rescue media, a Recovery Repair diskette, or a set of Product Recovery discs, you might not have the rescue device, CD drive, DVD drive, or USB hard disk drive defined as a startup device in the BIOS startup sequence. For more information, see “Setting a rescue device in the startup sequence.”
