Installation
This
chapter
contains
instructions
for
installing
Rescue
and
Recovery.
You
can
find
installation
instructions
on
the
System
Migration
Assistant
program
in
the
System
Migration
Assistant
Users
Guide
on
the
Lenovo
Web
site

Installation
considerations
Before
installing
ThinkVantage
Rescue
and
Recovery,
you
should
understand
the
architecture
of
the
application
you
are
installing.
This
section
provides
the
architecture
of
each
application,
as
well
as
additional
information
you
need
before
installing
either
program.
Rescue
and
Recovery
has
two
main
interfaces.
The
primary
interface
operates
in
the
Windows
XP,
Windows
2000
or
Windows
Vista
™
environment.
The
secondary
interface
(the
Rescue
and
Recovery
Predesktop
Area)
operates
independently
of
either
Windows
XP
or
Windows
2000
operating
system,
in
the
Windows
PE
environment.
Notes:
1.
Rescue
and
Recovery
only
works
with
the
non-BIOS
version
of
Computrace
if
Rescue
and
Recovery
is
installed
first,
and
then
Computrace
is
installed.
See
2.
If
you
attempt
to
install
Storage
Management
Subsystem
on
a
computer
with
Rescue
and
Recovery
installed
with
the
Windows
PE
area
already
installed
as
a
virtual
partition,
then
Storage
Management
Subsystem
will
not
install.
Both
Windows
PE
and
Storage
Management
Subsystem
use
the
C:\minint
directory
for
its
file
system.
The
way
to
have
both
installed
at
the
same
time
is
to
install
Rescue
and
Recovery
4.1
as
a
type
12
partition.
See
for
instructions.
3.
A
possible
security
risk
may
be
created
when
the
Microsoft
Recovery
Console
is
installed
on
a
system
with
Rescue
and
Recovery.
Microsoft
Recovery
Console
looks
for
all
folders
with
the
path
C:\*\system32\config\
and
if
it
finds
that
path
it
assumes
it
is
an
operating
system.
If
the
registry
entries
that
require
a
Windows
password
are
not
present,
then
recovery
console
will
allow
a
user
to
choose
the
operating
system
and
then
gain
access
to
the
entire
hard
drive
without
needing
to
enter
a
password.
4.
If
you
are
using
Microsoft
Vista
make
sure
you
have
an
adequate
amount
of
free
space
on
your
local
drive.
This
space
is
needed
for
Rescue
and
Recovery
to
create
a
shadow
copy
of
the
partition
so
it
can
back
up
locked
files.
Overinstall
considerations
A
new
backup
must
be
taken
after
installation
of
Rescue
and
Recovery
4.1
because
old
backups
from
previous
versions
will
be
deleted
during
installation.
This
backup
can
be
done
by
using
either
a
script
or
the
user
interface.
