Recovery Discs
Disposing of the computer and the computer's batteries
■ Discard this computer in accordance with applicable laws and
regulations. For further information, contact your local government.
■ This computer contains rechargeable batteries. After repeated use, the
batteries will finally lose their ability to hold a charge and you will need
to replace them. Under certain applicable laws and regulation, it may be
illegal to dispose of old batteries by placing them in the trash.
■ Please be kind to our shared environment. Check with your local
government authority for details regarding where to recycle old
batteries or how to dispose of them properly.
■ If your hard disk drive or other storage media contains sensitive data,
you should be aware that standard deletion procedures do not remove
data from the media. These standard deletion procedures include:
■ Selecting Delete for a target file
■ Putting files in the Recycle Bin and emptying the Recycle Bin
■ Reformatting the media
■ Reinstalling an operating system from the recovery CD-ROM
The procedures above delete only the initial part of the data used for file
management. This makes the file invisible to the operating system, but
the data can still be read by specialized utilities. If you dispose of the
computer, please delete all the data on its hard disk drive. Doing so
prevents unauthorized use of such data. To ensure your data is not
used for unauthorized purposes, you can:
■ Physically destroy the hard disk drive
Problem Procedure
The following message
appears when
executing Recovery
Disc Creator.
"The Recovery Disc
Creator can not be
launched because
there is no
recovery
partition."
You will see this message if you have previously
chosen to remove the partition and are trying to
create "Recovery Media".
When there is no recovery partition, the
Recovery Disc Creator cannot make Recovery
Media.
However, if you have already created a
"Recovery Media", you can use it to restore the
recovery partition.
Simply follow the instructions in Restoring the
pre-installed software from your created
Recovery Discs section in Chapter1, Getting
Started.
You will be directed to select "Restore Original
Factory Image" from the drop-down menu.
If you have not created "Recovery Media",
please contact TOSHIBA support for assistance.
