Restoring the pre-installed system
When the hard disk drive is replaced because of a failure, no Product Recovery
program is on the new hard disk. In this case, you must use the recovery CD for
the computer. Order the recovery CD and the hard disk drive at the same time so
that you can recover the new hard disk drive with the pre-installed software when
they arrive. For information on which CD to order, see “Recovery CDs” on page
85.
