Hard Drive Recovery
The NI 8171 series controllers include a recovery CD. There are two
methods for recovering the hard disk to its original state.
Recovery from a CD-ROM
These steps apply to a USB CD-ROM, IDE CD-ROM (when using a
PXI-1020 or PXI-1025 chassis), or SCSI CD-ROM drive (when a SCSI
adapter is installed).
To recover the hard disk from a CD-ROM:
1. Load the recovery CD into the CD-ROM drive.
2. Press <Esc> during the BIOS POST. After POST, a boot menu is
displayed. Select the CD-ROM drive.
