Burn backup discs From the Backup page of Acer eRecovery Management, you can burn the factory default image or back up drivers and applications. 1.

Select the type of backup (factory default or drivers and applications) you would like to burn to disc. 4. Follow the instructions on screen to complete the process. NOTE: Create a factory default image when you want to burn a bootable disc that contains your computer's entire operating system as it was delivered to you from the factory. If you wish to have a disc that will allow you to browse the contents and install selected drivers and applications, create a drivers and application backup instead - this disc will not be bootable. Restore The restore feature allows you to restore or recover the system from a factory default image or from previously created CD and DVD backups. You can also reinstall applications and drivers for your Acer system. 1. Click on Start, All Programs, Acer, Acer eRecovery Management. 2. Switch to the Restore page by clicking Restore. Chapter 1 21
