Via Recovery CD
Recovery CD does not come with your computer. First, you need to replicate the
recovery data by copying onto CDs and then, recover the system with them.
You will have only one duplicate copy. Once you successfully burn the
data onto CD, you do not have to do it anymore.
Even if you cancel the CD burning process, you can create the recovery
CD by following the entire burning steps from the first step.
You can recover your system via hard disk after succeeding in creating
the recovery CD.
You need an external optical drive for CD recovery. Read its manual
carefully before using the drive.
The CD creating time varies depending on your optical drive and
selected burning speed.
