forming recovery. Once the process is

First Time).

floppy drive and insert the Emergency
Recovery CD in the CD-ROM drive.

insert the disks, exit your operating sys-
tem and power down the notebook.
4. Start (power up) your notebook. Your
notebook will automatically boot from
the floppy disk.

check to see that the Recovery CD is
installed in the CD-ROM drive and
repeat the previous steps.
If you received a message "This program
may not be used on your computer" you
are using the wrong Recovery CD for
your notebook. Contact Fujitsu PC
