Using the Application Recovery CD(s)
The Application Recovery CD(s) allows you to reinstall individual
applications and device drivers if they are corrupted or accidentally
erased. Reinstalling an individual device driver or software title may
correct a problem you are experiencing with your computer, and you may
not need to recover the entire contents of your hard drive. If you do need
to reinstall all the software titles that shipped with your computer, use the
System Recovery CD(s). See “Using the System Recovery CD(s)” on
page 47.
You must be in Windows to run the Application Recovery CD(s). The
application will not run from DOS. If you have any questions on using
the Application Recovery CD(s), contact Sony Online Support (SOS).
To use the Application Recovery CD(s)
1
Turn on your computer. If your computer is already on, close all
applications.
2
When the Windows desktop appears, insert the Sony Application
Recovery CD in the DVD-ROM drive. The Application Recovery
utility loads automatically.
3
When the Application Recovery menu appears, follow the on-screen
instructions to complete the recovery process.
Your system may include one or two Application Recovery CDs. If you have two Application
Recovery CDs, insert the first CD to run the Application Recovery program. You may be
prompted to insert the second CD, depending on the application you wish to restore.
