Hard Drive Recovery
NIPXIe-81 30 controllers include two methods of restoring the original
factory condition of your hard drive. Hard drive-based recovery stores a
factory backup on a separate portion of your hard drive allowing you to
restore your controller without additional media. The NI PXIe-8130
controller also ships with an OS Recovery CD that allows you to reinstall
your operating system onto your hard drive through an external USB
CD/DVD-ROM. For more information on these tools, refer to
KnowledgeBase 2ZKC02OK, Hard Drive Recovery and OS Installation
for PXI and VXI Controllers, at ni.com/support.
Note Your system hot key is <F4>. To access the hard drive-based recovery tool, press and
hold <F4> when video first appears during the boot process.
