Reinstalling Software
Before Reinstallation
Preparing
You will need the followings:
• Product Recovery CD-ROM
• Optional port replicator (CF-VEB071)
• External keyboard
• External mouse
• External display
• If it was necessary to create BACKUP DISKS (“Create backup disks for reinstal-
lation” on page 17), you will need the BACKUP DISKS (e.g., FIRSTAID FD),
the USB floppy disk drive (CF-VFDU03).
The operation of reinstallation takes about 1 hour (Windows 98) or 20 minutes
(Windows 2000).
Important
Save all important data. If reinstallation is carried out, all data existing prior to the
installation will be lost. The reinstallation will return the computer to close to the
conditions at time of purchase.
Before the reinstallation procedure, remove unnecessary peripherals.
Be sure the AC adaptor is connected until the reinstallation procedure is com-
pleted.
