Lenovo ThinkPad T61 User Manual

Notes:
1. If you are using Windows XP or Windows 2000, and the optical drive is
not attached to your ThinkPad computer during recovery, DVD software
and CD-recording software will not be installed. To ensure that they will
be installed correctly, install the optical drive in the Ultrabay before
performing a recovery operation.
2. The recovery process might take up to 2 hours.
Attention: All of the files on the primary hard disk partition (usually drive C)
will be lost in the recovery process. However, before any data is overwritten,
you will be given the opportunity to save one or more files to other media.
1. If possible, save all your files and shut down your operating system.
2. Turn off your computer for at least 5 seconds.
3. Turn on your computer. Watch the display carefully. While the message,
“To interrupt normal startup, press the blue ThinkVantage button” is
displayed, press the ThinkVantage button. The Rescue and Recovery
workspace opens.
4. Click Restore your system and follow the instructions on the screen.
Recovering data
If you performed a backup operation using the Rescue and Recovery
program, you also have one or more backups stored that reflect the contents
of the hard disk as it existed at various points in time. These backups might
be stored on your hard disk, or a network drive, or on removable media,
depending on the options you selected during the backup operation.
You can use either the Rescue and Recovery program or the Rescue and
Recovery workspace to restore the contents of the hard disk to an earlier state
using any of the stored backups. The Rescue and Recovery workspace runs
independently of the Windows operating system. Therefore, you can start it
by pressing the blue ThinkVantage button when prompted during startup.
After the Rescue and Recovery workspace opens you can perform a recovery
operation, even if you are unable to start Windows.
