Warning

Gateway Recovery Management can only be started when a user has administrator privileges under Windows.

If you restore the system from CD/DVD to the original hard disk without any re-configuration, the hidden partition will be retained. If you recover on a brand new hard disk instead of the old one, the Gateway Recovery Management partition will no longer exist.

The backup discs created by Gateway Recovery Management will work better with the optical drive that came with your machine. They may not work as well in other optical drives.
