To create recovery discs for only the factory-loaded software and drivers, click Create Drivers and Applications Backup Disc. Important: We recommend that you create each type of recovery disc as soon as possible. The Create Factory Default Backup dialog box opens. This dialog box tells you the number of blank, recordable discs you will need to complete the recovery discs. Make sure that you have the required number of identical, blank discs ready before continuing. 3. Insert a blank disc into the drive indicated in the Backup to list, then click Next. You will be shown the backup progress on the screen. The drive ejects each disc as it completes burning it. 4. Remove the disc from the drive and mark it with a permanent marker. Important: Write a unique, descriptive label on each disc, such as 'Windows Recovery Disc 1 of 2' or 'Apps/Drivers Recovery disc'. Make sure you keep the discs in a safe place that you will remember. 5. If multiple discs are required, insert a new disc when prompted, then click OK. Continue until the process is complete.
