tents as they were originally shipped from the
factory. Most often this is necessary if files or
software programs (only those files/programs
that came pre-installed) become corrupt or
accidentally erased.
You have two options available when
performing recovery:
1. Recover Hard Drive without Format. This
choice replaces all the original factory
installed files and program structures without
eliminating your data files. You will have to
re-install any software that was not included
with the computer when you bought it (but
your data will be intact as long as the installa-
tion of the additional programs is performed
in the same manner).
2. Format and Recover Hard Drive. This choice
removes all the information on the hard disk.
If you choose this option, you will lose any
software you have installed and any other
files you created since you setup your com-
puter. You will have to re-install any software
that was not included with the computer
when you bought it.
POINT
It is recommended that you back-up all
data files prior to performing either of
the recovery options.
