Insert the USB Flash Memory into one available USB port.

Restoring the pre-installed software from your created Recovery
Media

If the pre-installed files are damaged, you are able to either use the

Recovery Media you have created or the hard disk drive recovery process

to restore the computer to the state it was in when you originally received it.

To perform this restoration, follow the steps below:

■

Do not use power-saving features.

■

Do not write to the media when the virus check software is running.

Wait for it to finish, then disable virus detection programs including any

software that checks files automatically in the background.

■

Do not use utilities, including those intended to enhance hard disk drive

access speed. They may cause unstable operation and damage data.

■

Do not shut down/log off or Sleep/Hibernate while writing or rewriting

the media.

■

Set the computer on a level surface and avoid places subjected to

vibrations such as airplanes, trains, or cars.

■

Do not use on an unstable surface such as a stand.

■

You can use DVD media when you connected the external ODD.

■

Please note that some of the above media may not be compatible with

the external optical disc drive connected to your computer. You should

therefore verify the external optical disc drive supports the blank media

you have chosen before proceeding.

■

USB Flash Memory will be formatted and all the data in the USB Flash

Memory will be lost when proceeding.
