Using the Driver Recovery CD(s)

The Driver Recovery CD utility enables you to reinstall individual drivers if they
become corrupted or are accidentally erased. You can reinstall an individual
driver to correct a problem that you are experiencing with your notebook,
hardware, or software application. VAIO Support Agent uses a vault feature on
the Driver Recovery CD(s) to repair software applications.

To repair software applications using VAIO Support Agent

The Driver Recovery CD utility has an information vault that contains the

protected by VAIO Support Agent.

Your system may include one or two Application Recovery CDs. If you have two

Application Recovery CDs, insert the first CD to run the Application Recovery
program. You may be prompted to insert the second CD, depending on the application
you wish to restore.

You must be in Windows to run the Driver Recovery CD utility.
