  Select either 

Basic Restore

 or 

Complete Restore

 from the 

Restore menu.
To restore the computer to the initial state, click 

Computer 

Initial State

 and perform the restoration process according 

to the instructions that appear on the screen.

Run 

Complete Restore

 if the computer does not work even 

after 

Basic Restore

 has been completed.

In the 

Advanced

 menu, you can change the size of the hard 

drive partitions (e.g. C: and D:).

Make sure to backup your data in advance, as all data will 

• 

be deleted after the partition size is changed.
The 

• 

Advanced

 menu is only activated when the computer 

boots up in the restoration area. 

(by pressing the 

F4

 key during the booting sequence.)

Since a Complete Restore deletes all user data as well 

as additionally installed programs, please backup your 

important data fi rst using the Data Backup function, before 

running Complete Restore.

4

  The computer boots up into restoration mode and the 

restoration progress message appears. If you click 

OK

, the 

restoration begins. The restoration may take some time, 

please wait for a moment.

5

  When the ‘Restart the System’ message appears after the 

restoration is complete, click 

OK

 to restart the system.

Make sure that the power cord is connected while the 

restoration is in process. The fi rst time the computer boots 

up after a Complete Restore has been performed, the speed 

of the boot process may be slowed down due to the system 

optimization process. At this time, do not shut the computer 

down by force.
