Restoring TOSHIBA utilities and drivers
If Windows is working properly, individual drivers or applications can be
separately restored. The TOSHIBA Tools & Utilities folder (C:\TOOLSCD)
contains drivers and applications, which are included with your computer
system. If your system drivers or applications have become damaged in
some way, you can reinstall most of the components from this folder.
Create a copy of this folder on external media for more convenience.
When you reinstall the Windows
®
operating system, the hard disk will be
reformatted and all data will be lost.
Please use the Express Media Player Recovery CD to reinstall the
“Express Media Player” before you reinstall a Windows
®
operating system.
