Recovering lost or damaged software restores your operating system and hard disk to its factory-shipped configuration. The Recovery CD consists of the original preinstalled software and device drivers. The recovery process might take up to 2 hours. Your computer supports startable (or bootable) CDs. To use the Recovery CD, do as follows: 1. Insert the Recovery CD into the CD-ROM drive. 2. Power off the computer; then turn on the computer. Notes: a. Make sure that the boot priority for CD-ROM is higher than the hard disk drive. See "Startup Configuration" on page 21. b.

When a completion message appears, remove the Recovery CD from the CD-ROM drive. 5. Restart the computer. The computer restarts with the preinstalled configuration.
