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 prote\
ct your data from loss or damage resulting from operational
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 disabl\
e it again (
 page 30).
Disconnect or remove all peripheral devices and SD Memory Cards. Take ca\
re to disconnect the
USB floppy disk drive, as the backup area may not be created properly wh\
ile 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 on\
ly), and create the backup
area.
To divide the partition, make the selection when the backup area is crea\
ted ( page 35 step 8).
If the partition configuration is changed (partitions created, size cha\
nged, etc.) after the backup
area has been created, it will no longer be possible to execute the back\
up function.  To change the
configuration, it is necessary to return the computer to its condition a\
t 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.
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 st\
ored on it. We recommend
that you also back up important data to a location other than the hard d\
isk (an external hard disk
or other media).
Execute a disk error check using the following procedure.
1Select [start] - [My Computer], right-click [Local Disk(C:)], and then\
 select [Properties].
2Select [Check Now] from [Tools].
3In [Check Disk], select [Start] without adding a check mark beside any o\
f 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 fo\
r and attempt recovery
of bad sectors], select [Start], and check for disk errors again.
The hard disk backup function does not accommodate dynamic disks.  Do no\
t 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 b\
efore restoration) may be lost.
Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. will bear no responsibility for\
 any damages suffered by the user (including loss of da ta)
as a result of the use of this function.
Before Using a Hard Disk Backup Function
Preparing
You will need the Product Recovery DVD-ROM and CD/DVD drive (included).\

*11 MB  = 1,048,576 bytes
*2A segment of the main memory is allotted automatically depending on the computer’s operating status. The size of the Video Memo ry
cannot be set by the user.
*
3A 16,777,216 color display is achieved by using the dithering function.
*4Maximum resolution depends on the specifications of the external display.
*51  GB  = 1,000,000,000 bytes.  Your operating system or some application software will report as fewer  GB.
*6Read only.
*7Does not support DVD-RW Ver. 1.0.
*8In the case of DVD-RAM, only non-cartridge discs or removable cartridge discs can be used.
*9The data transfer rate of DVD per 1x speed is 1,350 KB/s. The data transfer rate of CD per 1x speed is 150 KB/s.
*10If an unbalanced disc (e.g., a disc with which the balance has been displaced from the center) \
is inserted, the speed may becom e slower
if there are large vibrations while the disc is rotating.
*
11Depending on the disc, the writing speed may become slower.
*12A PC2-3200-compliant or PC2-4200-compliant RAM module can be added. A PC2-4200-compliant RAM module added to this computer,
operates at the same speed as a PC2-3200-compliant RAM module.
*
13This slot does not support the MultiMedia card. Operation has been confirmed for Panasonic SD Memory Cards with up to 1  GB capacity.
*14Use only a monaural condenser microphone.
*15When using the LAN port of the port replicator, IEEE802.3ab 1000Base-T is not available.
