The Medion Windows reinstall has two options for you
to use, first the hard drive System Restore from
Symantec (This is a full destructive reinstall that
restores you system to factory settings) and lastly a
DVD restore of Vista (Which a full reinstall of Windows
from DVD)
System
Restore powered by Symantec -
System Restore from CD
Important - Why Medion have used the words "System
Restore" is quite bizarre as its easily confused with
the "Vista system restore" which is a settings and
system changes recovery that is not destructive, so be
careful when performing the following steps and don't
run the "Symantec System Restore" when you just want to
run the "Vista System Restore" to undo a few changes as
you will loose all you data
System
Restore powered by Symantec
(Not to be confused with Windows Vista Restore)
If your system is not functioning properly and
Windows Vista® System Restore did not solve the
problem, then you should use the Application Support
Disc to restore your system.
Limits of the Recovery
Changes made to the original configuration and
installed Software will be ignored by this Recovery
and will not be reloaded. Driver Updates or hardware
installed by you will be ignored by this Recovery.
Beware!
All data on drive C will be erased. If
necessary, backup all required data on
drive D.
This recovery will reset your system to its condition
at delivery. Printer installations or other additional
software must be reinstalled.
Attention!
A backup will no longer be possible if you
have deleted the D:\Recover directory
or the files located in it. You can copy the
FACTORY.GHO file and
all additional FACTXXX.GHS files to external
data media, such as CDs or
DVDs, etc, for security.
