Using the Application Recovery CD(s)

The Application Recovery CD program allows you to reinstall individual 
applications and device drivers if they are corrupted or accidentally erased. 
Reinstalling an individual device driver or software title may correct a problem 
you are experiencing with your computer, and you may not need to recover the 
entire contents of your hard drive.

You must be in Windows to run the Application Recovery CD(s). The application 
will not run from DOS. If you have any questions on using the Application 
Recovery CD(s), contact Sony Customer Support.
