Recovering specific files and software
You can perform a partial recovery by recovering specific files, such as device
drivers and most pre-installed software. If you need to recover software that did
not come pre-installed on your system, you need to follow the software’s own
instructions for installation.
You can recover specific files using either the Start menu or a driver and
application recovery disc that you have created.
To restore your system from the driver and application recovery discs:
1 Click Start, All Programs, System Recovery, then click Application &
Driver Recovery.
- OR -
Turn on your computer, then insert the driver and application recovery
disc #1 (if available) into the CD or DVD drive. The Application Recovery
program opens.
2 Click the driver or application you want to install. To select multiple items,
press and hold C
TRL while clicking each item.
3 Click Next. The items you selected are installed. When the installation is
finished, a message asks you if you want to install more drivers or
applications.
4 Click Ye s to install more drivers or applications, or click Quit to exit.
5 Store the discs in a safe place for future use. You are done.
6 If your system still has problems, follow the directions in “Recovering your
system using Microsoft System Restore” on page 120.
