If you have set the password to protect your data, you cannot start the recovery
process without entering the password. Be sure to write down the password not to
forget the password.
If you have forgotten the password, contact VAIO-Link to reset it. A reset fee will be
charged.
Aborting the system recovery process
Before the actual recovery process starts, the Recovery Wizard makes it easy to cancel
any settings you may have made. Most screens remind you about the loss of data that will
occur and you can either go back to the previous screen (click Back), or abort the recovery
setup altogether. To abort, remove the recovery disc (if applicable), press Cancel, and click
Yes to confirm. The system reboots automatically.
However, once the recovery process has started, canceling the job will delete all the current
data on your drive.
When using recovery discs: if you do not remove the disc before rebooting, the system recovery
will start again.
There are two options to recover your computer system:
❑
Recover your computer system from Windows (see page 18).
❑
Recover your computer system without starting Windows (see page 19).
