Restoring your Computer

To (re)install your Operating System:

Chapter 12 - Restoring your Computer

 

Notebook computers that ship from the factory include one Microsoft Windows 98,

 

Windows 2000, or Windows NT 4.0 CD-ROM and System utility CD-ROM, which

 

contains a copy of the applications and drivers needed for a computer’s Operating

 

System.

 

In the unlikely event that programs on the computer hard drive become corrupted

 

or are erased, you can use the Microsoft Operating System CD-ROM to reinstall

 

your Operating System and then the System utility CD-ROM to reinstall your

 

original applications and drivers.

NOTE:

Under the Boot menu in System Setup, set Diskette Drive as the first boot device

 

and CD-ROM Drive as the second. (See “Using System Setup” on page 75. for

 

information on setting options.)

information on installation and setup.
