Recovery Choices
The Product Recovery CD gives you the following choices.
!
Full — Completely rebuilds your hard disk drive, destroying all
existing data in the process. Once you choose this option, you
are prompted to confirm your choice. When your choice is
confirmed, the recovery proceeds without requiring any
intervention or responses on your part. Simply walk away and
return in about half an hour.
Note
: Use full restore if your hard disk consists
of one partition (drive).
!
Partition — Lets you preserve your existing hard disk drive
partition structure and format only the primary partition without
affecting the extended partition(s).
Partition restore formats drive C (of a multiple partitioned drive)
and restores drive C to its initial installation state. Additional
partitions, e.g. drives D, E, etc. remain intact.
Note
: Use Partition Restore if your hard disk is
partitioned into two or more partitions (drives).
!
Express — A full restore option that completely rebuilds your
hard disk drive, destroying all existing data in the process. Once
you choose this option, the recovery proceeds without requiring
any intervention or responses on your part. Simply walk away
and return in about half an hour.
Note

consists of one partition (drive).
