Using the Application Recovery CD(s)
The Application Recovery CD(s) allows you to reinstall individual
applications and device drivers if they are corrupted or accidentally
erased. Reinstalling an individual device driver or software title may
correct a problem you are experiencing with your computer, and you may
not need to recover the entire contents of your hard drive. If you do need
to reinstall all the software titles that shipped with your computer, use the
System Recovery CD(s). See “Using the System Recovery CD(s)” on
page 68.
You can also use the Application Recovery CD to install Windows NT
®
Workstation 4.0 drivers on your computer.
