Transfer the contents of the backup partition to your network (this option requires
a valid LAN connection on your system), allowing you to restore your system from
the network .
➤
Erase the contents of the backup partition completely to free space on your hard
disk drive.
1. Use the Backup Partition (Default)
Leave the backup partition as it is. For the full recovery process, boot on the recovery
media supplied with your system, either a bootable floppy disk or CD-ROM. With
this option, the Backup Partition remains on your hard disk drive, occupying about
1.5 to 2 GB. If this is the recovery process of your choice, you do not need to change
anything in this menu. You may click on Close.
2. Create Master CDs from Backup Partition
Note: this option will appear only if a drive featuring CD-R capability is installed
on your system. If you install later a CD-R drive, you will have to use Smart
Restore (refer to page 23) to install the RecordNow and Master CD Creator
software applications before being able to use this option.
This option will copy the contents of the backup partition to a self-made Master CD
and free up the space on your hard disk drive. The backup partition is automatically
deleted from your hard drive following the transfer. However, as long as the transfer
has not been completed successfully, the backup partition is not erased.
This option will run the Master CD Creator program. It requires a CD-R drive and a
blank recordable CD; DO NOT USE A CD-RW.
Note: during the whole process, do not shutdown the computer nor run any other
programs. Plug your notebook on AC power, and make sure that your anti-virus
software, screen saver and energy saving mode are deactivated.
