Solving recovery problems
If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment, do one
of the following:
• Use a rescue medium to start the Rescue and Recovery workspace. See “Creating and using a rescue
medium” on page 98.
• Use recovery media if all other methods of recovery have failed and you need to restore the hard disk drive
or solid-state drive to the factory default settings. See “Creating and using recovery media” on page 95.
Note: If you are unable to access the Rescue and Recovery workspace or the Windows environment from
a rescue medium or recovery media, you might not have the rescue device (an internal hard disk drive or
solid-state drive, a disc, a USB hard disk drive, or other external devices) set as the first boot device in the
startup device sequence. You must first make sure that your rescue device is set as the first boot device in
the startup device sequence in the ThinkPad Setup program. For detailed information on how to temporarily
or permanently change the startup device sequence, see “Startup menu” on page 68.
It is important to create a rescue medium and a set of recovery media as early as possible and store them
in a safe place for future use.
Recovery information for the Windows 8.1 operating system
This section provides information about the recovery solutions for the Windows 8.1 operating system.
A Windows recovery image is preinstalled in the recovery partition on your computer. The Windows recovery
image enables you to refresh your computer, or reset your computer to the factory default settings.
You can create recovery media as backups or replacement for the Windows recovery image. With the
recovery media, you can troubleshoot and fix the problems on your computer even if you cannot start the
Windows 8.1 operating system. It is recommended that you create recovery media as early as possible. For
more information, see “Creating and using recovery media” on page 101.
