Using the Support DVD

The Support DVD includes an image of the operating system, installed on
your system at the factory. The Support DVD provides a comprehensive
recovery solution that quickly restores your system to its original working

using the Support DVD, copy your data files to a USB storage device or to
a network drive and make note of any customized configuration settings
(such as network settings).
