after a disaster recovery.
However, if a laptop uses a hibernation file that is not automatically excluded, then
you will need to set up your system to exclude this file. There may also be a small
number of cases where the hibernation file is not automatically regenerated. You can
regenerate the file manually using the Windows based utility provided by the OEM
(usually under Control Panel, Power Management).
How to Use the CD-ROM
Turn the computer off. Insert the recovery CD into the CD drive. If there is more
than one CD-ROM, one of them should be labeled as the first to insert. If the Disaster
Recovery CD-ROM set included a floppy disk, insert it in the floppy disk drive.
Turn the computer on. After a few seconds, your computer should start loading files.
If everything goes well, you should eventually see a screen like the one shown
below.
This screen indicates the computer is ready to start the AutoBackup recovery. As the
screen says, ensure that the only media in your computer are the Disaster Recovery
media.
This program will reformat your hard drive, removing all information that is
currently there. It will then replace your files as of a specific backup date, which may
not be the most current date. If you do not wish to perform this recovery, you can
type N and exit the program.
Type Y to continue with the recovery. Some files will be copied to the hard drive.
