RESTORING YOUR
PRE-INSTALLED SOFTWARE
The Drivers and Applications CD contains:
■
Sets of device drivers and Fujitsu utilities (in specific
directories) that are unique to your LifeBook note-
book configuration for use as documented below.
■
A link to the Drive Image Special Edition (DISE)
utility on your hard disk drive.
■
Read-me files that provide additional use information
for items on this CD-ROM.
DRIVE IMAGE SPECIAL EDITION (DISE)
PowerQuest Drive Image Special Edition (DISE)
provides a way to restore your computer if you experi-
ence a hard disk crash or other system failure. Fujitsu has
used DISE to create an image of everything installed on
the computer at the time you purchased it. The image is
saved on a separate partition on the hard disk. You can
use DISE to restore the factory image and return your
computer to the state in which it was shipped from
Fujitsu.
Although it is not necessary, you can use DISE to store
additional image files that you create. For example, if
you install several applications and save data files on
your hard disk, you can create a new image file that
includes them and then save that image file on the hard
disk. Then, in the event of a hard disk failure, you can
restore the image that includes the applications and data
files you use.
Creating a Backup Image
You can create a backup image of your C:\ drive at any
time. The C:\ partition must be a FAT, FAT32, or NTFS
partition. The backup partition must be installed
directly after the C:\ partition on your hard disk (i.e., it
should be the D:\ partition).
There are two ways to implement the DISE utility: When
booting up the system, or from the desktop.
Creating a backup image when booting up
Before creating a backup image at boot-up, you must
first change the boot-up priority so that the system will
go to the CD drive first, rather than trying to boot-up
from the hard drive or a floppy disk drive.
1. Insert the DAR CD into the drive and power up your
system.
2. When the prompt appears below the Fujitsu logo,
press the [F12] key.
3. Select the CD drive from the list that appears, and
press [Enter]. The CD drive is now the boot drive,
and the system boots up from the CD.
4. A message will appear informing you that
continuing to boot from the CD will overwrite all
information on the hard drive, including saved files,
and restore the hard drive to its factory configura-
tion. When you are asked if you want to restore the
factory image, click [Y]es .
Creating a backup image from the desktop
To create a backup image from the desktop, select Drive
Image SE from the Program list. You will initially be
prompted to create a backup diskette. It is not necessary
to create the backup diskette, since the DAR CD
performs the same function, but you can make a backup
diskette if you wish to have a redundant copy.
1. At the Drive Image Special Edition main screen,
click Options> Create New Backup. DISE displays a
warning that it must go to DOS to create the image.
3. Click Yes.
DISE creates an image file in the backup partition. If
you created a backup image previously, the new
image overwrites the old one.
Enlarging the Backup Partition
If there is not enough unused space in the backup parti-
tion on your hard disk, DISE will resize the partition.
DISE will display the minimum, maximum, and recom-
mended sizes for the backup partition. You choose the
size you want.
DISE takes the space from the FAT, FAT32, or NTFS
partition that you are backing up. If there is not enough
C A U T I O N
If the DAR CD is in the drive when you boot up the
system, a message will appear informing you that
continuing to boot from the CD will overwrite all
information on the hard drive, including saved files, and
restore the hard drive to its factory configuration. If you
wish to install drivers or applications only from the CD,
remove the disk from the drive, reboot the system, and
insert the CD after Windows has started.
