Restoring
factory
contents
Instead
of
providing
a
recovery
CD
or
a
Windows
®
CD
with
your
computer,
Lenovo
provides
simpler
methods
of
accomplishing
the
tasks
typically
associated
with
these
CDs.
The
files
and
programs
for
these
alternative
methods
are
on
your
hard
disk,
which
eliminates
having
to
locate
misplaced
CDs
and
problems
associated
with
using
an
incorrect
CD
version.
The
complete
backup
of
all
the
files
and
programs
that
Lenovo
preinstalled
on
your
computer
resides
in
a
hidden
protected
area,
or
partition,
of
the
hard
disk.
Although
hidden,
the
backups
in
the
partition
consume
hard
disk
space.
Therefore,
when
checking
the
capacity
of
your
hard
disk
according
to
Windows,
you
might
note
that
the
total
capacity
of
the
disk
appears
to
be
smaller
than
anticipated.
This
discrepancy
is
explained
by
the
contents
of
the
hidden
partition.
The
Product
Recovery
Program
contained
within
this
area
enables
you
to
restore
the
complete
contents
of
your
hard
disk
to
the
same
state
as
it
was
when
originally
shipped
from
the
factory.
Note:
The
recovery
process
might
take
a
couple
of
hours.
To
recover
the
hard
disk
to
its
original
contents,
do
the
following:
