66 Getting Started Recovering the Internal Storage Drive NOTE When you create recovery media, only the operating system files, applications, and drivers originally shipped with the computer are backed up to the external media and can be restored from this media. Any files that you created are not backed up on the recovery media. You will need to separately back up the files you created; for more information, see "Backing up your work" on page 85. When you create recovery media, the system will prompt you to insert several blank DVDs or connect one or more USB flash drives of a certain minimum capacity to your computer. The amount of space required for storing the recovery files varies by computer model. Follow the procedure below to determine how much space you will need for storing your system's recovery files. To create recovery media: 1 Click the Start button and, in the Search field, type Recovery Media Creator. In the list that appears above, click on your selection. The TOSHIBA Recovery Media Creator dialog box displays.
