System Recovery
These system recovery CDs can be used only with
your Compaq Presario PC model. They are licensed
for use only with your Compaq Presario PC. The
Compaq System Recovery CDs can restore the
software on your computer if the software becomes
corrupted or is accidentally erased.
The Compaq System Recovery CDs provide two
recovery options:
3
Standard Recovery:
This is a
non-destructive
recovery,
which recovers factory-shipped
programs, drivers, and the operating system
without affecting any data files that you may
have created since purchasing this PC. Some
data files may be difficult to find after the system
recovery, so it is best to back up all hard disk
files before performing a system recovery.
3
Full System Recovery:
This recovery erases
and reformats the hard disk, creates a new hard
disk partition, erases all added hard disk data,
and then reinstalls the operating system. You
must reinstall any software that was not installed
on the computer at the factory.
Note:
If your PC has a blank or corrupted hard
disk, you will only have the full system
recovery option.
To run the CD-based system recovery program:

that you want to save onto removable media,
such as CD-RW or diskette. Remove the backup
