You can use disc media when you connected the external Optical Disc
Drive.
A recovery image of the software on your computer is stored on the Solid
State Drive, and can be copied to either disc media or USB Flash Memory
by using the following steps:
1. Select either blank disc or USB Flash Memory.
The application will allow you to choose from a variety of different
media onto which the recovery image can be copied including disc
media and USB Flash Memory.
Please note that some of the disc media may not be compatible with
the optical disc drive connected to your computer. You should
therefore verify the optical disc drive supports the blank media you
have chosen before proceeding.
USB Flash Memory will be formatted and all the data in the USB Flash
Memory will be lost when proceeding.
2. Turn on your computer and allow it to load the Windows 7 operating
system from the Solid State Drive as normal.
3. Insert the first blank disc into the optical disc drive tray, or Insert the
USB Flash Memory into one available USB port.
4. Double click the Recovery Media Creator icon on the Windows 7
desktop, or select the application from Start Menu.
5. After Recovery Media Creator starts, select the type of media and the
title you wish to copy, and then click the Create button.
Restoring the pre-installed software from your created
Recovery Media
If the pre-installed files are damaged, you are able to either use the
Recovery Media you have created or the Solid State Drive recovery
process to restore the computer to the state it was in when you originally
received it. To perform this restoration, follow the steps below:
When the sound mute feature has been activated by pressing the FN +
ESC key, be sure to disable this to allow sounds to be heard before starting
the restore process. Please refer to The Keyboard in Chapter 3, Operating
Basics, for further details.
You can not use System Recovery Options if restoring the pre-installed
software without System Recovery Options.
When you reinstall the Windows operating system, the hard disk will be
reformatted and all data will be lost.
1. Load the Recovery Media into the external Optical Disc Drive or insert
the recovery USB Flash Memory into one available USB port.
