Using the Recovery Partition or the DVD Recovery (for selected
models) allows you to reformat your hard drive and restore your
ASUS Notebook PC to its original factory settings. These recovery
options also enable you to reuse the default settings of your
Notebook PC to make new changes as needed.
Back up all your data before performing system recovery in your
Notebook PC.
You may need to reinstall some software applications after the

a new license to reactivate the software.
Do not restart or turn off your Notebook PC during the recovery
