Manual for PlatiniX 2 series
key to quit RecoveryEasy, this will save the change. Do not try to create the
partition again, since creating partition will clear all the content of the partition.
11. What is multi-boot?
RecoveryEasy can implement the multi-boot function by activating different
partition. For example on the hard disk, partition C contains DOS, partition D
contains Windows 95 version, partition E contains Windows 98 version, when
activating partition C in RecoveryEasy, the system enters DOS, when activating
partition E, the system enters Windows 98 version. At the same time, the
sequence of the partitions is adjusted accordingly, partition E becomes C:,
partition C becomes D: and partition D becomes E:. This function is the same as
that of fdisk.exe, but the system needs reboot in order to make the change
validate for fdisk.exe.
12. What if computer accidentally power off when backuping (recover-
ing)?
The partition should be completely backuped or recovered. If the computer
accidentally powers off, the partition should be backuped or recovered once
again.
13. What if users lose the password?
To make sure the security, the password is saved in the hard disk. It’s very
important for users to remember the password. If forgetting the
password, contact us, clearing CMOS is useless.
14. Does RecoveryEasy protect hard disk against CIH?
RecoveryEasy can strongly protect the hard disk from boot-virus, as well as the
attack of CIH. If the system is attacked by CIH, RecoveryEasy will automatically
recover the MBR and each partition boot record before system boots up, and try
to recover the FAT. In this way the system can basically boot up, then users can
use some anti-virus application to kill the virus. However this depends on how
CIH virus affects the system. CIH normally outbreaks on 26
th
every month, if the
system cannot boot up that day, power off the computer instantly, and use the
second safe way to recover the system, that is, recover the partition from its
mirror area from Recovery User Interface. Remember to create a mirror partition
and backup before virus attacks the system.
