PS/1 - Restoring original PS/1 software on PS/1 or PS/Note

Applicable to: United States

The IBM PS/1 and PS/Note models with Windows 3.1 pre-installed were developed with PS/1 FITNESS. The PS/1 FITNESS program allows you to easily backup files and restore files on your hard disk.

To RESTORE your original PS/1 Software, please follow the appropriate instructions below:

If you have created a Recovery diskette:

1. Insert this Recovery diskette into drive A with your PS/1 turned off.

2. Turn on your computer.

3. Choose the "Install PS/1 Software" option.

4. Follow the instructions on your screen. (The program prompts you to insert each of the IBM PS/1 Software diskettes.)


If you have NOT made a Recovery diskette AND have not selected the PS/1 Fitness ERASE option:

1. Exit Windows and select the DOS Prompt option.

2. Type: CD\RECOVERY and press [Enter].

3. Type: PKUNZIP -O -D *.ZIP C:\ and press [Enter].


This will restore all of the original preloaded software to your hard disk.
