prepare to recover When you first get your computer, it is a good idea to make a backup of the software that came with your system. Before you create this"recovery disc,"make sure that your computer has a recordable drive and that you have blank discs ready. Depending on the type of recordable drive you use, you'll need either several CD-R discs or one DVD-R or DVD+R disc. CD-RW, DVD-RW, and DVD+RW discs will not work. To create the disc, click (Start), Gateway Recovery Center, then click Factory Recovery External Media and follow the on-screen instructions. When prompted, choose either Create System Recovery Discs (makes a backup of applications and drivers) or Create ISO image (creates complete system backup). Make your selection, then continue with the on-screen instructions. 21
