Using the Driver Recovery CD
The Driver Recovery CD utility enables you to reinstall individual drivers if they become corrupted or are accidentally erased. You can reinstall an individual driver to correct a problem that you are experiencing with your computer,  hardware,  or software application. VAIO Support Agent uses a vault feature on the Driver Recovery CD(s) to repair software applications. 

 You must be in Windows to run the Driver Recovery CD utility. 
To use the Driver Recovery CD(s) 1 2 Turn on your notebook. If your notebook is already on,  close all applications. When the Windows desktop appears,  insert the Driver Recovery CD in the optical disc drive. Use My Computer or Windows Explorer to view the contents of the Driver Recovery CD. Select the appropriate driver. 

To repair software applications using VAIO Support Agent The Driver Recovery CD utility has an information vault that contains the original characteristics for the preinstalled software applications that are protected by VAIO Support Agent. See "VAIO Support Agent" on page 59 for instructions on how to fix your software problems. 

Using the System Recovery CD(s)
This CD restores your notebook to its original state,  so user data and applications will be lost.
