Using the System Recovery CD(s)
You can reinstall software titles that shipped with your computer if they are corrupted or
accidentally erased. You may not need to recover the entire contents of your hard drive. If you
experience a problem with your computer, reinstalling an individual device driver or software title
may correct the problem.
Use the Application Recovery CD(s) to reinstall individual applications or device drivers. See Using
the Application Recovery CD(s) .
The System Recovery CD(s) contains a backup copy of all the software originally installed on your
hard disk drive. It can be used only to recover the hard disk of the Sony computer you
purchased.
The System Recovery utility gives you three options:
 Full Restore without Format restores all the software titles that originally came with your
computer without formatting the hard disk.
 Full Restore with Format formats the hard disk drive and then restores all the original software.
If your hard drive is partitioned into C and D drives, the computer offers you the option to
reformat the drive into a single partition.
 Operating System Only formats the hard disk drive and restores the Windows operating system
and the device drivers that shipped with your computer. This option is recommended for advanced
users only.
If you choose the Full Restore with Format or Operating System Only option, your hard disk will be formatted,
which removes all the information on the hard disk drive. You will lose any software you have installed and any other
files you have created since you started to use your computer. This means you will have to reinstall any applications
that were not included with the computer when you purchased it. If you choose the Full Restore without Format
option, you may need to reinstall applications that were not included with the computer when you purchased it. If
you have any questions on using the System Recovery CD(s), contact Sony Customer Support.
To use the System Recovery CD(s)
You need to complete the Windows registration process when you use the System Recovery CD(s). Make sure
you have the product ID number located on the cover of your Microsoft Windows manual. You will need this number
to complete the recovery process.
