rectly. These functions assist you in solving the problems which
might occur by adding, deleting or replacing files required for
proper functioning of Windows XP, and your software and de-
vices. The restore function you use depends on the type of prob-
lem or error.
In general, it is a good idea to set a recovery point before in-
stalling a new software program or driver. If the system be-
comes unstable during or after the installation, you can usually
return to a workable configuration without deleting newly cre-
ated documents. If Windows XP System Restore does not solve
your problem refer to the next section, System Restore.

If your system is not functioning properly and Windows XP Sys-
tem Restore did not solve the problem, then you should use the
Application Support Disc provided by Medion to restore your
system. This recovery mode provides several options.
There are three options for restoring your system:
1. Recovery of start-up files
Use this option to restore the start-up files. This option is
most useful when a virus has corrupted certain files
necessary for your computer to boot. It is executed very
quickly.
2. Recovery of system and driver files
This option will copy the original system and driver files to
your hard disk. This feature shouldn’t affect your personal
files and settings. However, we recommend that you first
back up your personal data just to be safe.
3. Restoring the factory settings
This recovery will reset your system to its condition at
delivery. ALL DATA ON YOUR LOCAL DISC (C:) DRIVE WILL
BE ERASED. If possible, back up your personal data to
external media before performing this restore.
