Systems shipped after July 15, 2004 came with Symantec PC Restore. This utility restores the computer to an "as-shipped" condition. If you haven't reformatted, repartitioned, or otherwise modified the master boot record, it should work.

If the Symantec PC Restore utility won't work, but still resides on your computer, a Dell customer has figured out some ways to get it to work again. Note - If you removed this partition, it is not recoverable, cannot be downloaded from the internet, and cannot be shipped from Dell. Click here for ways to fix Symantec PC Restore. Users have also reported that the partition can be restored with Ghost 2003, and Ghost 9 using the '03 capabilities of it. If you boot to the Ghost 9 CD, select Advanced Recovery Taks, select Utilities, then Restore Legacy Image it should work - but you want to verify the image before attempting the restore. It's in a folder called IMG.

I mean I've got an Inspiron and I removed Media Direct Software on that. So what will I do now to make Media Direct do as it intended. Reinstall Media Direct Software or do like the documention says.

thank you very much.

I removed Media Direct Software but still kept MediaDirect Partition on my Inspiron, whether I must go through "Prepare the Hard Drive for Reinstallation of MediaDirect" step as said in this support documentation (http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/en/document?journalid=460655B67E5F9BAAE040A68F27281C56&docid=3082DAC1D7384CD5E040A68F5B2814A2) or only reinstall Media Direct Software?

yes, i see. I've just reinstalled Dell MediaDirec Software. It ran so well. Thank you very much.
