First of all, before making a key recovery, to determine that there is no important information in C, including the desktop, My Documents, if there is, to be copied to D disk in advance;
Second, start to do a key recovery, divided into the following three steps:
The first step: the boot, on the keyboard three lights at the same time after the press F2 key;
The second step: select "One key restore/Continue/", start "Lenovo one key recovery";
The third step: Select "System Recovery", enter, and then press the letter E, wait until the recovery, press any key to restart the computer;
Again, after the three steps above, Lenovo a key recovery has been completed, but, if you are not sure that your D, E, F, no virus, it is best to follow the following points:
First, restore the system, do not directly into the system, but Advanced security mode (Boot press F8 key);
Second, with the right mouse click on "My Computer/management/Disk Management/";
Third, on the D-Letter point right, select "Change Drive name and path" to remove D, E, F, and then in normal mode (can avoid D, E, F can automatically run the virus).
Finally, connect the network, upgrade the antivirus software and then use the above method to restore the letter.
Part of the problem summary for Lenovo Recovery:
For some friends of Lenovo a key to restore some of the problems, do some summary, I hope to help you
1. Where is a key recovery? reformatting the C-disk installation system will not destroy a key recovery?
One-click Restore installed in the last partition of your machine, the early one-click Recovery is a hidden partition, even if you use the System CD-ROM to boot to the partition interface can not see, and can not be deleted, but the use of advanced disk management tools such as PQ to remove the merge this partition.
Later, some of the machine called the service partition, using the system CD-ROM boot to the partition interface can be seen called EISA Partition two, you can delete, delete after the restore function is not a key.
Only reformatting the C disk installation system will not destroy a key recovery, you can still install the system through such as NOVO to enter a key recovery interface, a key recovery system is still in your computer.
2. Frequent use of "one key restore" to the computer has no damage?
Every time you do a key restore equivalent to format C disk after the service partition of the last backup of the system all copied to your C disk, this is only a disk read and write and copy the data process, the machine hardware (hard disk, etc.) will not have any damage.
3. After replacing the system also want to use a key recovery, how to handle?
In two cases, (1) you install a system yourself, but you want the service partition to retain the factory pre-installed system, and so on when necessary to restore the factory state, at this time you need to install the system when the format C disk to retain the size of C disk and format can not be changed, the latter machine should also be careful not to remove the service partition (EISA Division II).
(2) You have modified a system yourself, and you want to change the size and format of the C disk, and you want to restore each time to your own backup. At this point you can delete the partition (not delete EISA Partition II), repartition after the installation system, after the installation of the system need to enter a key recovery system to do a backup of the current system, so your next recovery is your backup system.
4. A key repair after the user backup completes, the shutdown will still prompt "system initialization completed, please press Novo key to backup the next time you turn on the computer." Then press Novo to enter a key recovery for system backup, and then shutdown will also appear this dialog box, what reason?
A. After the encapsulation, should be a "one-button repair" user backup, after the "one-click Restore" User backup, this sequence will appear this phenomenon.
The Final Solution: please copy the attachment "ICBackup.dat" file to the system disk: Windows root directory, you can resolve the shutdown prompts to press Novo backup problem
B. The "Lenovo one key repair Windows Intelligent Monitoring" program can be, (limited to the "one-button repair" Zhaoyang model is not pre-installed)
5. One-click Recovery I don't need to, how to release this part of the space out?
Of course this function is very good, recommended, if necessary, the old model can use PQ Such tools, delete the last partition after the merge use, if the new model directly using the system CD-ROM, the disc boot to the partition interface after the last partition merge or create can use.
6. One key recovery how much disk space do I occupy?
Why my disk capacity is not packing slip of the 80G or 120G XP models about 6-7g, Vista models have about 13-14.6g, and disk capacity is not up to the packing list for two reasons, hard disk manufacturer 1000M when 1g,c system will 1024M when 1G, so you can use, can see the disk space is: standard G number x1000x1000x1000/1024/ 1024/1024-One-click recovery space
7. Do a key recovery system recovery prompts "data does not exist", why?
Two reasons, (1) The factory is a DOS machine, after the purchase agent to help install the system did not do a key recovery system backup, and did not do a key restore system backup. (2) Factory is with the system machine, or they have done a key recovery system backup, but their own or other computer users, did a key recovery in a C for "backup Uninstall" (Some friends think this can release some of the disk space, in fact, not)
8. Prompt for backup: Insufficient backup destination space or prompt "Insufficient backup disk space", how to resolve?
A. Early one-click Restore backup finds that the last hidden partition has insufficient disk space to automatically back up the last partitioned space. However, this disk must have contiguous FAT32 space available when the last partition is not in the FAT32 format, or some disk fragmentation causes disk space discontinuity to result in an inability to back up, prompting insufficient space.
Workaround: Back up the last partition data to another letter, use the FAT32 format, and format the last partition back up.
B. Later one-key recovery has fixed service partition size, cannot borrow other partition space, when the C disk has more space than the service partition used to back up the size of the system, will not be able to back up, will prompt insufficient space.
WORKAROUND: Reduce the use of C disk space to the service partition reservation used to back up the size of the system. The XP model is a 5g,vista model of 12G
9. Shut down Press Novo a key to restore the key after the direct boot up does not show will not enter the recovery interface What's going on?
First try to press the Novo key under the Microsoft Windows interface to adjust the power mode properly. If you can, you may have been in the "Hibernate" state of your C system last time. (Vista system, the default press the power button does not enter the shutdown state!)
Solution: Normal into the C system, the system into the "sleep" (note is not sleep) state, and "wake" action, shutdown and then press Novo key.
10. Lenovo One-click repair "Unsupported usage patterns are there?"
Unsupported usage modes are as follows:
1 non-Windows XP SP2C system (upgrade to SP2 after installing SP1);
2 does not support the use of Ghost recovery system (can support user reinstall C as System);
3 Windows XP SP2 the target folder name installed on the system disk is not "Windows";
4 users can use a variety of backup means, may affect the "Lenovo one key repair" to the system, such as using the "Lenovo one-click Recovery" To restore the system disk than "Lenovo one key Repair" backup earlier system version.
