Using Your Recovery CDs
The following sections describe how to use the Application Recovery, Driver
Recovery, and System Recovery utilities.
Using the Application Recovery CD(s)
The Application Recovery CD utility enables you to reinstall individual
applications if they become corrupted or are accidentally erased. Reinstalling an
individual software title may correct a problem you are experiencing with your
notebook or software application; you may not need to reinstall the entire
contents of your hard drive. If you need to reinstall all the software titles that
shipped with your notebook, use the System Recovery CD(s). See “Using the
System Recovery CD(s)” for more information.
You can also use the Application Recovery CD to install Windows 2000 drivers
on your notebook.
To use the Application Recovery CD(s)
1 Turn on your notebook. If your notebook is already on, close all
applications.
2 When the Windows desktop appears, insert the Sony Application Recovery
CD in the optical drive. The Application Recovery utility loads
automatically.
3 When the Application Recovery menu appears, select the icon for the
application you want to restore and then follow the on-screen instructions to
complete the recovery process.
✍ You must be in Windows to run the Application Recovery CD. If you have any
questions on using the Application Recovery CD, contact Sony Customer Support.
✍ 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.
