Thank you for purchasing a Fujitsu computer. Fujitsu is committed to bringing you the best computing
experience with your new system.
It is very important that you create DVD copies of your Factory Image before beginning to use your
system. To do so, follow the instructions below in the “Saving Your Factory Image” section.
Along with instructions on saving your Factory Image, this document outlines several other important proce-
dures, such as making a system image, restoring your Factory Image and system images, managing your
images, and restoring the partitions on a hard drive.
Saving your Factory Image
When you purchased your new system, a copy of the pre-installed Factory Image was loaded into a hidden
partition on your hard disk drive. Having a copy of the original Factory Image available to you means that in
the event of system failure, you will be able to restore it to its original state.
After you launch the ClickMe! utility when you first start up your system, you will be
prompted to make a copy of the Factory Image to DVD discs. You will need
two
blank discs
(DVD-R or DVD+R discs are recommended) in order to create the copy. After creating the
copy, be sure to label the discs and keep them in a safe place to ensure they do not get
damaged.
1.
To start the backup, click the
[My Recovery]
icon. The MyRecovery Menu will open with four buttons.
2.
Select [Manage/Create] -> [Factory Image].
3.
Select the
Factory Image
listed in [Backup Images], then click [Make DVD].
4.
Be sure you have an internal or externally connected recordable DVD drive attached to your system. A
popup will appear displaying the types of supported DVD-R/+R media.
5.
Insert a blank disc, then click [OK].
6.
A second popup displaying “Recovery Disc #1.” will appear. Enter your comments and number of media
on the DVD”.
7.
When the first disc is complete, you will be prompted to insert a second disc to complete the backup.
8.
While the copy is being made, a “Writing to the media” screen displays a progress bar. When the copy is
complete, a dialog will appear informing you of the successful completion of the backup.
