Restoring the pre-installed software
If the pre-installed files are damaged, use the Product Recovery DVD-ROM
to restore them.
Restoring the complete system
To restore the operating system and all preinstalled software, follow the
steps below.
1. Load the Recovery DVD into the optical disc drive and turn off the
computer’s power.
2. While holding down F12 key on the keyboard, turn on your computer.
When the TOSHIBA logo screen appears, release the F12 key.
3. Use the left and right cursor keys to select the CD-ROM icon from the
menu. Please refer to the Boot Priority section in Chapter 7, HW Setup
& BIOS Setup, for further information.
4. A menu will be displayed from which you should follow the on-screen
instructions.
5. If your computer came with additional software installed, this software
can not be recovered from the Product Recovery DVD-ROM. Re-install
these applications (e.g. Works Suite, Games, etc.) separately from
other media.
When the sound mute feature has been activated by pressing the
FN + ESC key, be sure to disable this to allow sounds to be heard before
starting the restore process. Please refer to Chapter 5, The Keyboard, for
further details.
You can not use System Recovery Options if restoring the pre-installed
software without System Recovery Options.
When you reinstall the Windows operating system, the hard disk will be
reformatted and all data will be lost.
