Running Recovery and Utility from the disc

BOOT Priority Change

Before restoring an image, you must first verify that the system is set up to boot from the DVD drive. To
verify/change the boot-up priority (rather than booting-up from the hard drive or an external floppy disk
drive), perform the following steps:

1

Power on your system. When the Fujitsu logo appears on the screen. press the [Enter] key or click on the left
mouse or touchpad button; the TrustedCore Menu will appear.

2

Select the Boot Menu from the TrustedCore Menu.

3

If “Optical Media Drive”, “CD-ROM Drive”, or “CD/DVD Drive” is not at the top of the list, arrow down to the drive
in the list, and press the space bar (or the + key) to move it to the top of the list. (The system attempts to boot
from the devices in the order in which they are listed.). Note that the BIOS for some systems will indicate “CD-
ROM Drive”, even when a DVD drive is connected.

After you have changed the boot priority, you can restore a backup image when booting up.
