NEC OS Restore CD
Use the NEC OS Restore CD to restore your system to its original factory state if a problem occurs that causes data loss or corruption. The NEC OS Restore CD provides options for a full system restore with factoryinstalled software or for a restore with only the operating system and drivers. If you select to restore only the operating system and drivers, you can use the NEC Application and Driver CD to select the software you want to load on your system. See the previous section, "NEC Application and Driver CD, " for information on using the Application and Driver CD. Before starting, we recommend that you first contact NECC for assistance (see Chapter 6 for contact information).
