System Recovery - Restore your Q1105 operating system.
The hard drive of the Q1105 has a hidden partition that contains a full backup
image of the operating system that can be used to recover the system in the
event that something happens to the operating system.
If the hard drive is removed or the partition deleted, the recover options
will no longer be available and a recovery service will be needed.

recovery started.
