Using the Recovery Partition 
The Recovery Partition quickly restores your PC’s software to its 
original working state. Before using the Recovery Partition, copy 
your data files (such as Outlook PST files) to USB storage devices or 
to a network drive and make note of any customized configuration 
settings (such as network settings).
The Recovery Partition is a reserved space on your hard disk drive 
used to restore the operating system, drivers, and utilities installed 
on your PC at the factory.
