Recovering the Internal Storage Drive

Recovering without changing the internal storage drive partitions

Recovering without changing the internal storage drive partitions
deletes all information stored on the C: drive. Be sure to save your
work to external media before executing the recovery (see

“Backing

up your work” on page 68

). If you have created other partitions

(for example, a D: drive), those partitions will remain intact and any
information on them will not be affected.

You can recover the C: drive without affecting other partitions by
either using the utilities stored on your computer’s internal storage
drive or by using recovery media, if you have created such media.
To recover using the first method, follow the procedure below. To
recover using the second method, see

“Restoring from recovery

media” on page 52

.

To recover using the utilities on your computer’s internal storage
drive:

1

Make sure the computer is turned off.

2

While powering on your computer, press the

F12

key when the

initial TOSHIBA screen displays.

The boot menu appears.

3

Using the arrow keys to scroll down, select the HDD
Recovery
option, and then press the

ENTER

key.
