Recovering the Internal Storage Drive
Restoring from recovery media created by
TOSHIBA Recovery Media Creator
The recovery process deletes information stored on the
internal storage drive. Be sure to save your work to
external media before executing the recovery (see
“Backing up your work” on page 69).
During the recovery process your computer must be
connected to an external power source via the AC
adaptor.
If you have created a recovery drive for your system, you can
restore your system from this drive, if necessary. For
example, if your original internal storage drive fails, you can
restore your system to a new internal storage drive from your
recovery drive. For instructions on creating a recovery drive,
see “Creating a recovery drive using TOSHIBA Recovery
Media Creator” on page 47.
When you restore your system, only the operating
system files and drivers originally shipped with the
computer are restored. Any applications you installed or
files that you created are not restored during this
process. Be sure to separately save the files you have
created to external media using Windows or another
backup program. For more information, see “Backing up
your work” on page 69.
To recover your internal storage drive from a recovery drive:
1 Make sure your computer is turned off, see “To Shut
down your computer” on page 44.
2 Connect the recovery USB media you created to your
computer.
3 Turn on your computer while pressing the ( ) key on
the keyboard.
The Boot menu displays.
4 Select the
USB Flash option and press the ENTER key.
A Warning screen appears.
