Chapter 3. Recovery system Using the OneKey Recovery Pro program on the Windows 7 operating system On the Windows 7 operating system, the OneKey® Recovery Pro program enables you to do the following: • Performing backup and recovery operations The OneKey Recovery Pro program enables you to back up all your hard disk drive contents including the operating system, data files, software programs, and personal settings. You can designate where the OneKey Recovery Pro program stores the backup. • Using the OneKey Recovery Pro workspace The OneKey Recovery Pro workspace resides in a protected, hidden area of your hard disk drive that operates independently from the Windows operating system. This enables you to perform recovery operations even if you cannot start the Windows operating system. You can perform the following recovery operations from the OneKey Recovery Pro workspace. • Creating and using a rescue medium With a rescue medium, such as a disc or a USB hard disk drive, you can recover the computer from failures that prevent you from gaining access to the OneKey Recovery Pro workspace on your hard disk drive. For more information, refer to the help information system of the OneKey Recovery Pro program.  Solving recovery problems on the Windows 7 operating system To reinstall the Windows 7 operating system, do one of the following: • Start the computer. When the Lenovo logo is displayed, press F11 and then follow the on-screen instructions to start the Product Recovery program. • Start the computer. After you enter the Windows operating system, click the Lenovo Solution Center to launch this program. Then click the Recovery option. Notes: • You can choose to restore your system partition to the original factory state or to a previously generated backup. • The recovery process is irreversible. Ensure that you back up your critical data before using the recovery feature. 18
