Restoring Your Operating System
You can restore your operating system in the following ways:
•
Microsoft Windows System Restore returns your computer to an earlier
operating state without affecting data files. Use System Restore as the first
solution for restoring your operating system and preserving data files.
•
Dell PC Restore by Symantec (available in Windows XP) and Dell Factory
Image Restore (available in Windows Vista) returns your hard drive to the
operating state it was in when you purchased the computer. Both
permanently delete all data on the hard drive and remove any programs
installed after you received the computer. Use Dell PC Restore or Dell
Factory Image Restore only if System Restore did not resolve your
operating system problem.
•
If you received an
Operating System
disc with your computer, you can use
it to restore your operating system. However, using the
Operating System
disc also deletes all data on the hard drive. Use the disc
only
if System
Restore did not resolve your operating system problem.
Using Microsoft
Windows
System Restore
The Windows operating systems provide a System Restore option which allows
you to return your computer to an earlier operating state (without affecting
data files) if changes to the hardware, software, or other system settings have
left the computer in an undesirable operating state. Any changes that System
Restore makes to your computer are completely reversible.
NOTICE:
Make regular backups of your data files. System Restore does not
monitor your data files or recover them.
NOTE:
The procedures in this document were written for the Windows default view,
so they may not apply if you set your Dell™ computer to the Windows Classic view.
