CHAPTER 7: Maintaining Your Notebook 5 If you have enough blank discs of the specified type, click or tap I have enough discs, then click or tap Next. If you do not have enough discs, choose a different disc type, or click or tap Cancel. The disc recording begins. Label the discs as they are completed. Important Use a permanent marker to label each disc "Software and Driver Recovery," along with a short description of which convertible notebook the discs are for. If you are recording multiple discs, as you remove each disc from the drive, use the marker to label each disc 1 of x, 2 of x, 3 of x, and so on. Tip After a recovery disc is created, your convertible notebook names the disc Recovery13 for disc 1 of a 3-disc set, Recovery23 for disc 2, and so on. 6 If multiple discs are required, insert the additional blank disks when prompted. 7 When the process is finished, the Congratulations! window opens. 8 Click or tap Finish. 9 Remove your final disc, then label all of the discs and store them in a safe place. Recovering pre-installed software and drivers using Gateway Recovery Center To recover specific drivers and software: 1 Click or tap (Start), All Programs, Gateway Recovery Center, then click or tap Gateway Recovery Center. The Gateway Recovery Center opens. Important If you have recently reinstalled Windows or installed a new hard drive, and your Start menu does not contain Gateway Recovery Center as an option, you must recover your software and drivers using software and driver recovery discs you have created.
