Hard Drive Recovery Utilities
(Available on certain models)
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.
❖ During the HDD Recovery Process it is strongly recommended
that your computer be connected to an external power source
via the AC Adaptor.
❖ It is also strongly recommended that you create recovery
DVDs before using your system. For more information on
creating Recovery media see “Creating Recovery DVDs” on
page 61.
Using the HDD Recovery, you can:
❖ Create Hard Drive Recovery 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 your hard disk drive to the factory-set default without
the HDD Recovery partition.
❖ Reinstall drivers and applications which were bundled with
your computer.
Creating Recovery DVDs
Depending on your system configuration, you may be able to copy
the hard drive recovery to 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.
The system will prompt you to insert the appropriate number of blank
DVDs to copy the hard drive recovery. If your optical disc drive is not
writable, contact Toshiba Customer Support to obtain the Recovery
media for your system.
The Toshiba Customer Support Center in the United States is
(800) 457-7777, outside the United States it is (949) 859-4273.
