Recovering from the dedicated recovery partition (select models only)
NOTE: Computers with an SSD may not have a recovery partition. If the computer does not have a
recovery partition, you will not be able to recover using this procedure. Use the discs you created to
recover your operating system and software.
On some models, you can perform a recovery from the partition on the hard drive, accessed by
pressing either the Start button or f11. This restores the computer to its factory condition.
To restore the system from the partition:
1. Access Recovery Manager in either of the following ways:
●
Select Start > All Programs > Recovery Manager > Recovery Manager.
– or –
●
Turn on or restart the computer, and then press esc while the “Press the ESC key for
Startup Menu” message is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Then, press f11 while the
“Press <F11> for recovery” message is displayed on the screen.
2. Click System Recovery in the Recovery Manager window.
