Restoring Your Operating System You can restore your operating system in the following ways: • Microsoft Windows XP System Restore and Microsoft Windows Vista™ System Restore return your computer to an earlier operating state without affecting data files. Use System Restore as the first solution for restoring your operating system and preserving data files. • If you received an Operating System CD with your computer, you can use it to restore your operating system. However, using the Operating System CD also deletes all data on the hard drive. Use the CD only if System Restore did not resolve your operating system problem. 98 Reinstalling Software
