RecoveryProcedure 
Youroscilloscopeisdesignedtooperatereliablyformanyyears.However,the
applicationsoftwareoperatingtheinstrumentrunsonaWindowsplatform.The
loadingorincompleteremovalofadditionalWindowsapplicationsmayeventually
causeproblemsinthestabilityoftheoperatingsystem.Severecasesmayrequirea
reloadingofthebaseo
peratingsystemandoscilloscopeapplication.Thisisdone
usingarecoveryroutinethatrestoresacleancopyoftheimageoriginallyinstalled
ontheC:drive.
Note:AnyuserandcalibrationdatalocatedontheD:partitionisnotaffectedby
therecoveryprocess.
LeCroyprovidesyouwitharecoveryapplicationandabackupimageinanextra
partitionontheinstrument’sharddrive.Therecoveryprocessiseasytoperform,
usingtheRecoveryWizard.Aftertherecoveryprocedureisdone,youmustactivate
Windows,eitherbyInternetconnectiontoMicrosoft’sWebsiteorbyte
