Determining whether Recovery and Utility is pre-loaded
1
Turn on or reboot your system. When the Fujitsu logo appears, press [F12] key.
2 From the Boot Menu that appears, check whether the Recovery and Utility option is present. If it is not present,
it means that the utility must be used from the disc. Proceed to
“Running Recovery and Utility from the
optical disc” if Recovery and Utility is unavailable.
3 You can also use the TrustedCore menu to determine whether the utility is pre-loaded by powering on your
system then pressing the [Enter] key when the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen. The TrustedCore Menu will
appear and the Recovery and Utility option will appear in the menu.
