Overview
• Introduction
1.1 Introduction
What can be done in case of hard disk failure?
There is a possibility to recover the hard disk of the iCon H250/H400 . This might eliminate the need to replace it in case of a hard
disk failure.
The recovery can be needed in case of non repairable virus infection, forgotten password, blue screen at start up...
In this procedure we will use the Linux operating system to do the recovery.
WARNING:This tool will remove all data from your hard disk!
Procedure
We first change the BIOS settings in order to make the projectors’ server boot from the USB DVD reader, using the image file of the
firmware.
Then we start the hard disk recovery. At the end of the procedure, we put the BIOS settings back to its original state.
Kit contents
The delivered kit includes the following items:
•R32998700: DVD-ROM containing the image file for your projector (hard disk data)
•R32998600: CD-ROM containing Linux recovery tool
