The PC will load the Compaq System Recovery.  In the recovery program there are 2 methods which can be used to recover the PC:

  • Non-Destructive System Recovery.  This should restore the system without affecting the user's data. Please note that the stored user data may not be immediately visible and may be stored in a separate folder on the hard disk within the Documents & Settings folder after recovery. This occurs normally when User Accounts have been used and modified.
    • Press Next.  The user is prompted to try System Restore first.  Press Yes. Recovery will now begin.
  • Destructive System Recovery. This method will format the hard drive and remove any personal data and applications.   This will use a Quick Format only. 
    • Click Advanced Options from the first recovery screen shown. Press Next to begin.

On starting either recovery method there will be a reminder to use System Restore if possible, click Yes to continue. The Destructive System Recovery will have a final warning about data loss, click Yes.
