Restoring Your Operating System
You can restore your operating system in the following ways:
Microsoft Windows XP System Restore and Windows Vista System 
Restore return your computer to an earlier operating state without 
affecting data files. Use System Restore as the first solution for restoring 
your operating system and preserving data files.
Dell PC Restore by Symantec restores your hard drive to the operating 
state it was in when you purchased the computer. Dell PC Restore 
permanently deletes all data on the hard drive and removes any 
applications installed after you received the computer. Use PC Restore 
only if System Restore did not resolve your operating system problem.
If you received an Operating System CD with your computer, you can use it 
to restore your operating system. Use the CD only if System Restore did 
not resolve your operating system problem.

System Restore
The Windows operating systems provide a System Restore option which allows 
you to return your computer to an earlier operating state (without affecting 
data files)if changes to the hardware, software, or other system settings have left 
the computer in an undesirable operating state. Any changes that System 
Restore makes to your computer are completely reversible.
 
NOTICE: 
Make regular backups of your data files. System Restore does not 
monitor your data files or recover them.
 
NOTE: 
The procedures in this document were written for the Windows default view, 
so they may not apply if you set your Dell™ computer to the Windows Classic view.
