Product Recovery CD-ROM

Sony Electronics

The Product Recovery CD-ROM allows you to reinstall individual applications and device drivers if they are corrupted or accidentally erased. It also allows you to restore the software titles that were shipped with your computer if they become corrupted or are erased accidentally. Reinstalling an individual device driver or software title may correct a problem you are experiencing with your computer, and you may not need to recover the entire contents of your hard drive.

The Product Recovery CD-ROM can be used only to restore the hard disk of the Sony notebook computer you purchased.
