4.1 Restoring the System The system can develop problems due to erroneous operation or the installation of additional software. If software problems develop in the originally installed software, you can restore the system by using system backup and restoration features.

Use the following procedure to restore the software to a known functional level: 1. Click Start → All Programs → Accessories → System Tools → System Restore. 2. Choose either the recommended restore point, or select a different recovery time from the pop-up box. Choose the latest date when the system was running properly. Click Next to continue. 3. The system will start restoration. When all processes run to completion, the system displays a message informing you that the restore operation has completed successfully. 4.2 Backup and Restore For security purposes, you can back up the system status before you install additional software, or otherwise modify system settings.
