After recovery, all software titles that you have installed on your
computer must be reinstalled before you can use them again. Only
the pre-installed titles (e.g. DVD Player, CD-writer) will function
without additional installation.
If you were given a choice of languages when you first setup your
computer, you can only recover your operating system in the lan-
guage you chose originally.

may be used, no guarantee can be given that all data will be
retained.

Partial Recovery step by step:
1. Select which User profile (or User Account) to retain from the list
and click on Next.
•If you select the "No Profile" option, you will need to create one
or several new profiles as when you started the computer for
the first time. However, all personal data that was stored on
