Restoring the Hard Drive to Factory Default
Condition (Windows Only)
(NI cDAQ-9138/9139 for Windows)
You can restore the hard drive of the cDAQ chassis to
factory default condition either from a recovery partition on the hard drive or from the
NI Embedded Controller OEM Re-Installation DVD
shipped with the cDAQ chassis.
In order to use the hard-drive recovery partition, you must press and hold <F4>, which allows
you to enter the Acronis Recovery utility. In order to use the recovery DVD, you must connect
an external DVD-ROM drive to one of the USB ports of the cDAQ chassis. For more
information about restoring the hard drive to factory default condition, go to

Note
Restoring the hard drive to factory default condition erases the contents of the
hard drive. Back up any files you want to keep before restoring the hard drive.
Installing an Operating System
The cDAQ chassis is shipped with an operating system installed. You can use an external
CD/DVD-ROM drive, connected to one of the USB ports, to install a different operating system
such as Windows Embedded Standard 7 (WES7). For more information about installing an
