System Recovery
Using Recovery CDs
The recovery CDs provide two recovery options:
■ Standard Recovery: This is a
non-destructive recovery for recovering
factory-shipped programs, drivers, and the
operating system without affecting any data
files that you may have created since
purchasing your PC. Some data files may be
difficult to find after the system recovery, so it
is best to back up all hard disk drive files
before performing a system recovery.
