120 Chapter 07: Troubleshooting
Recovering Your System
While Windows® 7 is a very stable and robust operating system,
there may be times where you’ll encounter errors that may
prevent you from booting into Windows normally. Your Sahara
Slate PC has a hidden partition on the data storage drive that
contains the files you’ll need to restore your system.
This recovery system uses Windows Recovery and enables you to
restore the operating system to a previous state in time, reinstall
the operating system without losing your previous settings or
documents, or reinstall your system without saving your docu-
ments or settings.
IMPORTANT: You will need to have a mouse and/or keyboard with
standard F1-F12 function keys attached to your system in order to
launch and navigate both the Advanced Boot Options menu and the
Windows Recovery System.
