See the Windows Help and Support Center for information on using System Restore. To access the Windows Help and Support Center, see "Windows Help and Support Center" on page 11. NOTICE: Make regular backups of your data files. System Restore does not monitor your data files or recover them. NOTE: The procedures in this document were written for the Windows default view, so they may not apply if you set your DellTM computer to the Windows Classic view. Creating a Restore Point 1 Click the Start button and click Help and Support. 3 Follow the instructions on the screen. Restoring the Computer to an Earlier Operating State If problems occur after you install a device driver, use Device Driver Rollback (see "Using Windows XP Device Driver Rollback" on page 52) to resolve the problem. If that is unsuccessful, then use System Restore. PC Restore restores your hard drive to the operating state it was in when you purchased the computer. Any programs or files added since you received your computer--including data files--are permanently deleted from the hard drive. Data files include documents, spreadsheets, e-mail messages, digital photos, music files, and so on. If possible, back up all data before using PC Restore. To use PC Restore: 1 Turn on the computer. During the boot process, a blue bar with www. dell. com appears at the top of the screen. 2 Immediately upon seeing the blue bar, press <Ctrl><F11>. If you do not press <Ctrl><F11> in time, let the computer finish starting, and then restart the computer again.
