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.
•
If you received the
Operating System
media
with your computer, you can use it to restore
your operating system. However, using the
Operating System
media also deletes all data
on the hard drive. Use the media
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 that 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.
