Hard Drive Recovery Utilities
Your computer has been configured with a hard disk partition to
allow you to recover your hard disk drive or reinstall selected
applications and software features or utilities.
It is strongly recommended that you create recovery CDs/DVDs
before using your system. For more information on creating
Recovery media see “Creating Recovery CDs/DVDs” on page 56.
Using the HDD Recovery, you can:
❖ Create Hard Drive Recovery CDs or DVDs using a writable
drive
❖ Recover your hard disk drive to the factory-set default
❖ Recover just your C: drive, leaving any other partitions you
may have created intact, for example, a D: drive
❖ Recover to a custom sized partition, leaving extra space to
create an additional partition later
❖ Erase the hard disk completely
❖ Reinstall drivers and applications which were bundled with
your computer
Creating Recovery CDs/DVDs
Depending on your system configuration, you may be able to copy
the Hard Drive Recovery Utilities to CD or DVD which gives you
the ability to recover your hard disk drive and recover your system
if the hard drive recovery partition has been deleted or the hard disk
has been replaced on your computer.
