Why is my –RW type media rejected? When inserting -RW media the process of creating recovery media will stop with the message "The disc inserted is a re-writable disc. Insert a CD-R” (or DVD if you were using a DVD-RW type disc). Users can only create recovery media once. We require users to use R media (CD-R, DVD+R, DVD-R) instead of -RW to avoid the possibility of user accidentally erasing a recovery disc later. Re-writable media is not supported.

Cr eating the Re covery media set

There are 3 steps involved in creating each disc in a recovery set: 1. The files that make up the disc are collected 2. The disc is written 3. The disc is verified to ensure the data was written correctly

PC Recovery Disc Creator continues to be available under Start\ All Progr ams\S ystem Recovery even after the recovery set has been created. Once launched, it will now remind the user that a recovery set has already been created.

Recovery can be launched two ways: • At boot - Pres s F11 (No instruction about pressing F11 appears, press the key at the same screen that mentions to press F10 for bios) • In Windows - Go to Start \A ll Progr ams \Sys tem R ecovery \PC Recovery (On the first screen choose PC Recovery, the system will shut down and reboot into the

recovery partition) If a user partition exists, the process will copy all the files from the recovery partition to the user partition (C:\). Once this is done the user can reboot and System Recovery is complete.

Performing System Recovery from Recovery media Depending on the configuration of the HDD, the user may get different messages when booting off the Recovery media. Note : If no OS or user partition is found the “R” option launches a Destructive Recovery, while if a partition is found then the “R” option launches the System Recovery.

Performing Destructive Recovery from HDD The options for launching PC Recovery to do a Destructive Recovery are the same as the ones covered in the section on System Recovery (F11 at boot or St art\ All Progr ams \Sys tem R ecovery \PC Recovery in Windows) From the System Recovery screen, choose “Advanced Options” to get the Destructive Recovery option

If the user still wants to remove the partition it can be done through the PC Recovery Advanced Settings. Launch PC Recovery as normal (F11 at boot or from Start \Al l Programs\ System Re cove ry ) and when in the Advanced Settings screen choose the “Delete Recovery Partition” option.

The user will be asked to confirm their choice several times before partition is removed. System will reboot into Windows before partition is finally removed. The user partition (C:\) will be resized to include the space that was made available when the Recovery Partition was removed.
