When you reinstall the Windows operating system, the hard disk will
be reformatted and all data will be lost.
Please make sure that the Boot Speed is set to Normal. (To access it,
click Desktop -> Desktop Assist (in taskbar) -> Tool & Utilities ->
System Settings -> Boot Options.)
Please make sure to use the default Boot Mode option in the BIOS
setup utility before restoring.
1. In the Settings charm, click Power and then select Restart.
2. Hold down the F2 key and then release this key one second after
the computer is power on - the BIOS setup utility will load.
In the BIOS setup screen, select Advanced -> System Configuration
-> Boot Mode -> UEFI Boot (Default).
If you set the Boot Mode as CSM Boot, the recovery media created by
Recovery Media Creator will NOT be able to restore.
If you create a recovery image using advanced recovery tools from
Control Panel, please also make sure to use the default Boot Mode
option (UEFI Boot) in the BIOS setup utility before restoring.
1. Load the Recovery Media into the Optical Disc Drive or insert the
recovery USB Flash Memory into one available USB port.
2. In the Settings charm, click Power and then select Restart.
3. Hold down the F12 key and then release this key one second after the
computer is power on.
4. Use the up and down cursor key to select the appropriate option from
the menu according to your actual recovery media.
5. A menu will be displayed from which you should follow the on-screen
instructions.
If you have previously chosen to remove the recovery partition and are
trying to create "Recovery Media", you will see the following message: "The
Recovery Media Creator can not be launched because there is no recovery
partition."
When there is no recovery partition, the Recovery Media Creator cannot
make Recovery Media.
However, if you have already created a "Recovery Media", you can use it
to restore the recovery partition.
If you have not created "Recovery Media", please contact TOSHIBA
support for assistance.
