Recovering without changing the internal storage drive partitions
Recovering without changing the internal storage drive partitions
deletes all information stored on the C: drive. Be sure to save your
work to external media before executing the recovery (see “Backing
up your work” on page 111). If you have created other partitions
(for example, a D: drive), those partitions will remain intact and any
information on them will not be affected.
During the internal storage drive recovery process it is strongly
recommended that your computer be connected to an external power
source via the AC adaptor.
You can recover the C: drive without affecting other partitions by
either using the utilities stored on your computer’s internal storage
drive or by using recovery DVDs/media, if you have created such
media. To recover using the first method, follow the procedure
below. To recover using the second method, see “Restoring from
recovery DVDs/media” on page 76.
