Restoring the factory contents using the recovery disc set
When the main storage drive is replaced because of a failure, no product recovery program is on the new
drive. In this case, the customer must use the Recovery Disc Set to recover the computer. Order the
Recovery Disc Set and the drive at the same time so that the customer can restore the computer to the
factory default settings by using the Recovery Disc Set after the new drive is installed. For information about
which discs to order, go to:
http://www.lenovo.com/serviceparts-lookup.
Depending on the model, the number of recovery discs included in the Recovery Disc Set differs. To restore
the factory contents by using the product Recovery Disc Set, do the following:
Notes:
• During the recovery process, all data on the drive will be deleted. If possible, copy any important data
or personal files that you want to keep onto removable media or a network drive before you start the
recovery process..
• The recovery process takes one to two hours to complete. The length of time depends on the method you
use. If you use product Recovery Disc Set, the recovery process takes about two hours.

2. Make the CD/DVD drive the first startup device in the startup sequence using the following procedure:
a. Open the ThinkPad Setup program and select

8. When all of the data has been copied from the last disc in the set and has been processed, remove
the external CD/DVD drive and restart the computer. Follow the instructions on the screen to finish
the recovery.
