When the recovery backup has been successfully created remove the device from the computer and
store for future use.
Note
It is recommended that you now test your newly created Recovery Backup to ensure the process has
completed successfully. To do this, simply re-insert the device used during the steps above and follow
the steps 1 to 13 in the ‗Running System Recovery from USB drive/SD Card’ section of this manual. In
the unlikely event that the device does NOT load to the TechGuys Recovery front screen, simply re-follow
the steps above to create the device again.
Running System Recovery from Windows
The normal method of running System Recovery is from the hard drive. However, we also advise that
you create a backup of your Recovery — just in case you need it. Please see the ‗The TechGuys
Recovery Backup‘ section.
Important!
Please save all important files and documents to an external device before you begin.
The hard drive contents will be deleted. All information that it contains will be permanently
destroyed. This includes your email, your documents, your internet favourites, and your
music & videos files.
Recovery
To Start, either:
o Double-click the TechGuys Recovery icon on your desktop
o Click Start > All Programs > The TechGuys > TechGuys Recovery
You will be asked to close any open programs. Click OK to
restart the PC.
After your computer has restarted it will automatically load
into the recovery program.
Put a tick in the box next to ―Start Full Destructive
Recovery‖.
Click the right arrow to Start Recovery.
When Recovery has completed, click the right arrow to
restart your computer.
Your computer will then return you to its initial out-of-box
experience.
