Recovery Disc
The recovery process will return the computer to its original configuration, all data files will be lost. A full recovery process will take around 10 minutes. To begin the recovery insert the CD and restart the computer. Follow the prompts on screen to begin the recovery. When the machine restarts, instead of entering the normal "Starting Windows for the First Time" ( keyboard layout, location, etc... ), it will enter the installation of the GoBack software. Select OK to enter the installation (either by clicking OK with the mouse or pressing Enter on the keyboard). After GoBack has been installed the machine will restart and the Windows setup procedure will proceed as normal.
