Reinstalling
Important
Before the reinstallation procedure, remove all peripherals (except for the CD/DVD drive).
Be sure the AC adaptor is connected until the reinstallation procedure is completed.
When reinstallation procedure is performed, the contents of the hard disk will be erased.  Be sure to back up any critical data on
your hard disk to another media or to an external hard disk before running the reinstallation procedure.
The reinstallation procedure will return the computer to its original condition.
Even if a hard disk backup area has been created, this backup area will be erased, and all the backed up data will be lost.
(This is not the case when Windows is reinstalled in the first partition.)
• If you have created partitions for data, the data may be erased or become corrupt as a result of the reinstallation procedure.
1Turn off the computer and insert the CD/DVD drive into
the multimedia pocket. (
  “Multimedia Pocket”)
2Turn on the computer, and press   F2   while [Panasonic]
boot screen is displayed.
The Setup Utility will start up.
If the password has been set, enter the Supervisor Pass-
word.

Do not interrupt the reinstallation procedure be-
fore completion, for example by turning off the
computer or pressing
Ctrl   +   Alt   +   Del  , as
this may prevent Windows from starting up, or may
cause data to be lost so that the reinstallation pro-
cedure  cannot be executed.
When a message appears instructing you to insert
the next CD, insert the recovery CD showing the
next number in the sequence, and then select [OK].
If the message [The media does not contain the
correct file] appears, select [OK]. A message will
appear instructing you to insert the next CD.
Confirm that the proper recovery CD has been in-
serted by opening the cover of the CD/DVD drive
and then close the cover, then select [OK].
CAUTION
10At the confirmation message , press   Y   .
The operation of reinstallation for the hard disk starts au-
tomatically. (The operations take about 15 minutes.)

   Enter   .  (The Setup Utility settings will return to their
default values.  Even the security settings with the ex-
ception of the password(s) will return to their default
values.)
15Select [Exit] and then select [Save Current Values], then
press    Enter   .
At the confirmation message, select [Yes] and press
  Enter   .
16Turn the computer off by sliding the power switch.
17Perform the first-time use operation ( page 12 step 6

Appendix
Hard Disk Backup Function
The hard disk backup function creates a backup area (storage area) on the hard disk. This area is to back up (store) hard disk
contents or restore backed up contents to their original locations.
By backing up the data on your hard disk to a backup area, you can protect your data from loss or damage resulting from opera-
tional errors or other factors.  Also, you can back up or restore hard disk contents using this computer alone, without having to use
other media or peripheral devices.
At the time of purchase, the hard disk backup function is disabled.  If you follow the procedure below to create a backup area, the
hard disk backup function will be enabled, and you will be able to back up your data.  Note, that once the backup function has been
enabled, you will have to perform the reinstallation procedure to disable it again (
 page 31).
Disconnect or remove all peripheral devices (except for the CD/DVD drive), as the backup area
may not be created properly while these devices are connected.
Be sure the AC adaptor is connected to the computer.
A backup area cannot be created if the hard disk is already divided into several partitions.  Return
the computer to its condition at the time of purchase (one partition only), and create the backup
area.
To divide the partition, make the selection when the backup area is created ( page 36 step 8).
If the partition configuration is changed (partitions created, size changed, etc.) after the backup
area has been created, it will no longer be possible to execute the backup function.  To change the
configuration, it is necessary to return the computer to its condition at the time of purchase, and
then create the backup area again.
The hard disk backup function will only work for the internal hard disk. This function does not
work with an external hard disk or the second hard disk (optional).
Backup and restore functions will not operate if the hard disk has been damaged.
Do not use the NTFS file system compression function, as this may result in insufficient capacity
of the backup area.
If the hard disk malfunctions, it will be impossible to read the data stored on it.  We recommend
that you also back up important data to a location other than the hard disk (an external hard disk
or other media).
Execute a disk error check using the following procedure.
1Select [Local Disk(C:)] with the right button in [start] - [My Computer], and select [Properties].
2Select [Check Now] from [Tools].
3In [Check Disk], select [Start] without adding a check mark beside any of the items.
If a message is displayed indicating that there is an error in the disk, display [Check Disk], and
add a check mark for [Automatically fix file system errors] and [Scan for and attempt recov-
ery of bad sectors], select [Start], and check for disk errors again.
The hard disk backup function does not accommodate dynamic disks.  Do not convert the hard
disk to a dynamic disk. The hard disk backup function cannot back up or restore data properly if there is a problem with the hard disk when the data is
backed up or restored.  Note that if an error occurs while data is being restored, whether as a result of an unexpected malfunc-
tion, incorrect operation, or other reason, the data in the hard disk (data before restoration) may be lost.
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. will bear no responsibility for any damages suffered by the user (including loss of data)
as a result of the use of this function.

than half.
• The backup area cannot be accessed from Windows.  For this reason, backed up data
cannot be copied to CD-R or other removable disk media.
•  When the hard disk backup function is executed, data in the backup area will be
overwritten.  If newly created or edited data is backed up later, data stored previously
in the backup area will be lost.

erased.
Conduct steps 
1-8 for [Reinstalling Software]  ( page 31). Select [1] or [2] to execute the
reinstallation at the screen for executing the reinstallation.
• When [1] is selected, the hard disk backup function can be disabled.

Hard Disk Data Erase Utility
This computer is equipped with a utility for erasing hard disk data.
When disposing of or transferring ownership of this device, erase all data on the hard disk in order to prevent the theft of hard disk
data following the steps below.
The hard disk data erase utility erases data using an “overwriting” method, but there is a possibility that due to malfunctions or
other operational errors, data may not be completely erased. There are also specialized devices that may be able to read data
that has been erased using this method. If you need to erase highly confidential data, we recommend that you contact a
company that specializes in this process. Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. will bear no responsibility for losses or
damages suffered as a result of the use of this utility.
