Preparation for Re-installation
You can format the hard disk and re-install the preinstalled software with the recovery
CD-ROMs, and set the status of your computer to the same configuration as shipped
from the factory. The following items are necessary for re-installation:
• Product Recovery CD-ROMs
• Supplement for PC-FS2417/PC-FS2518
• Operation Manual
• It will take about 20 minutes to complete the re-installation.
• Use the Product Recovery CD-ROMs only for your computer.
• The Product Recovery CD-ROMs are not for sale. Keep them in a
secure place.
• Unless otherwise specified, the instructions in this booklet assume
that you are installing Windows XP into the C:\WINDOWS directory.
Backing up the data
Before formatting the hard disk, you should back up your data. For details on how to
back up your data, see the Windows Online Help.
Selecting the way to recover your system
Your computer has two drives(C: and D:) in its hard disk when it was shipped from
the factory. You can select the way to recover your system.
• Recovers C: drive only. (Recommended)
This process will format C: drive only and recover C: drive to the same status as
shipped from the factory. Nothing will be done to D: drive. The volume of the
drives will not be changed and current ones will be kept.
• Recovers both C: and D: drive.
This process will format both C: and D: drives, and contents of the hard disk are
restored to its original state in C: drive. The volume of the drives will be back to
the same as shipped from the factory.
• Formats hard disk and creates new partition.
This process will format the whole hard disk drive and creates a new partition. You
can select the volume of C: and D: drives. The contents of the hard disk are
restored to its original state in C: drive.
