executing the recovery (see

recommended that your computer be connected to an external power 
source via the AC adaptor.

restore your system from such media, if necessary. For example, if 
your original internal storage drive fails, you can restore your 
system to a new internal storage drive from your recovery 
DVDs/media. For instructions on creating recovery DVDs/media, 
see 

With recovery media, you can:

For more information on these options, see 

When you restore your system, only the operating system files, 
applications, and drivers originally shipped with the computer are 
restored. Any files that you created are not restored during this 
process. Be sure to separately save the files you have created to 
external media using Windows
