System Recovery Overview
After you have tried the previously mentioned methods
of repairing your system software, you can run the
System Recovery program as a last resort to reinstall
the operating system and the application software.
System Recovery provides two recovery options:
•
Standard Recovery
— This option recovers
factory-shipped programs, drivers, and the
operating system without affecting any data files
that you may have created since purchasing this
PC. Some data files may be difficult to find after the
System Recovery, so it is best to back up all hard
disk drive files before performing a System
Recovery.
•
Full System Recovery
— This option completely
erases and reformats the hard disk drive — this
includes deleting all data files you have created.
The full System Recovery reinstalls the operating
system, programs, and drivers from the recovery
image or discs. However, you must reinstall any
software that was not installed on the PC at the
factory. This includes software that came on CDs
included in the PC accessory box, and software
programs you installed since your purchase.
NOTE:
If your PC has a blank or corrupted hard disk
drive, you will see only the full System Recovery
option.
Additionally, you have to choose from the following
methods for performing a System Recovery:
•
Recovery
Image
— Run the recovery from a
recovery image stored on your hard disk drive. The
recovery image is a file that contains a copy of the
original software. To perform a system recovery
from the recovery image on your hard disk drive,
see “Running System Recovery from the Hard Disk
Drive.”
NOTE:
The recovery image uses a portion of the
hard disk drive that cannot be used for data
storage.
•
Recovery
Discs
— Run the recovery from a set of
recovery discs (CDs or DVDs) that you create from
files stored on your hard disk drive. To create
recovery discs, perform the procedure in the next
section.
