You may now choose between two forms of restoration:
•
Restore to HDD – no backup of user data
All data on the notebook are irretrievably erased, restoring delivery condi-
tion.
•
Restore to HDD – with backed up user data
Delivery condition is restored and all user data under
C:\User are pre-
served
.
ATTENTION
!
When using the option with backed up user data, the restoration
procedure takes a long time. Data are only preserved if they are
located in the c:\Users folder. All other data will be erased. For
this reason, you must perform regular backups on external data
carriers. We will not be liable for data loss and/or consequential
damages.
