113 - Restoring Your Pre-installed Software

Utility tab: The Utility tab contains three tools: System Restore, Hard Disk Data Delete and Partition
Creation.

• System Restore can help fix problems that might be making your computer run slowly or stop

responding. System Restore enables you in rolling back the system to an earlier restore point, and
does not affect any of your documents, pictures, or other personal data.

The Hard Disk Data Delete utility is used to delete all data on the hard disk and prevent the data

from being reused. NOTE: Do not use the Hard Disk Data Delete utility unless you are
absolutely certain that you want to erase your entire hard disk, including all partitions
.

The Partition Creation utility allows you to create a D: partition or resize existing partitions on

your hard disk. NOTE: Creating or resizing partitions with this utility will cause all data on
the hard disk to be completely erased.

Using the Shock Sensor Utility

The Shock Sensor Utility is designed to decrease the risk of damage to the computer's hard disk drive
(HDD) in the event of excessive impact or vibration. The Shock Sensor Utility also has the ability to
improve the security of the computer by automatically locking the computer with a password when it is
carried. Note that the HDD protection and computer locking features are mutually exclusive; both cannot
be selected at the same time.
