Using the QuickRestore CD
Restarting your computer with the QuickRestore CD in the drive
displays the following menu:
The Emergency Diskette option creates an emergency
diskette, which stores the software option information that
came with your computer. This diskette is necessary if you
ever need to restore your computer to the condition it was in
when you first unpacked it.
The User Backup option creates a backup of the current
Windows configuration and saves it on a separate partition
on your hard drive. The backup is stored in USER. PQI files.
The User Restore option extracts the data in the USER.PQI
files from the D drive and restores the desktop to the settings
that existed at the time of your last User Backup.
The Factory Restore option restores the computer to its
original factory condition. You may need to re-enter your
factory registration information again, and you may be
prompted to insert your emergency diskette.
The Exit option exits the QuickRestore CD.
