Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or restore the system if you experience system failure
or instability. Recovery Manager works from recovery discs or from a dedicated recovery partition
(select models only) on the hard drive. However, if your computer includes a solid-state drive (SSD), you
may not have a recovery partition. If that is the case, recovery discs have been included with your
computer. Use these discs to recover your operating system and software.
NOTE:
Windows has its own built-in repair features, such as System Restore. If you have not already
tried these features, try them before using Recovery Manager.
NOTE:
Recovery Manager recovers only software that was preinstalled at the factory. Software not
provided with this computer must be downloaded from the manufacturer's Web site or reinstalled from
the disc provided by the manufacturer.
Recovering from the recovery discs
To restore the system from the recovery discs:
1.
Back up all personal files.
2.
Insert the first recovery disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
3.
Follow the on-screen instructions.

and software.
