Creating Recovery Discs
PC Recovery Disc Creator creates a set of recovery CDs or DVDs
for the computer. Use recovery discs to restore the operating
system and software programs to factory settings, in case of
system failure or instability.
✎
Handle these discs carefully and keep them in a safe place. The
software allows the creation of only one set of recovery discs.
Note the following guidelines before creating recovery discs:
■ You will need high quality CD-R, DVD-R, or DVD+R media
(purchased separately).
✎
DVD±RW/R and double-layer DVD±RW are not compatible
with the PC Recovery Disc Creator software.
■ The computer must be connected to AC power during
this process.
■ Only one set of recovery discs can be created per computer.
