Solving recovery problems
If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment, do one
of the following:
Use a rescue medium to start the Rescue and Recovery workspace. See “Using a rescue medium”
on page 67
.
Use recovery media if all other methods of recovery have failed and you need to restore the hard disk
drive to the factory default settings. See “Using recovery media” on page 64.
Note: If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment
from a rescue medium or recovery media, you might not have the rescue device (an internal hard disk
drive, a disc, a USB hard disk drive, or other external devices) set as the rst boot device in the startup
device sequence. You must rst make sure that your rescue device is set as the rst boot device in the
startup device sequence in the ThinkPad Setup. See “Startup menu” on page 108 for detailed information
about temporarily or permanently changing the startup device sequence. For more information about the
ThinkPad Setup, see “ThinkPad Setup” on page 106.
It is important to create a rescue medium and a set of recovery media as early as possible and store them
in a safe place for future use.
