Sony PCG-XG700K User Guide

The following sections describe how to use the Application Recovery, System 
Recovery, and Driver Recovery utilities. 

The Application Recovery CD(s) allows you to reinstall individual applications 
and device drivers if they are corrupted or 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. If you do need to reinstall all the software titles that shipped with your 
computer, use the System Recovery CD(s). See “Using the System Recovery 
CD(s)” on page 127. 

Turn on your computer. If your computer is already on, close all 
applications.

When the Windows desktop appears, insert the Sony Application Recovery 
CD in the DVD-ROM drive. The Application Recovery utility loads 
automatically.

When the Application Recovery menu appears, select the icon for the 
application you want to restore and then follow the on-screen instructions to 
complete the recovery process.

✍

You must be in Windows to run the Application Recovery CD. If you have any 
questions on using the Application Recovery CD, contact Sony Customer Support.

✍

Your system may include one or two Application Recovery CDs. If you have two 
Application Recovery CDs, insert the first CD to run the Application Recovery 
program. You may be prompted to insert the second CD, depending on the application 
you wish to restore.
