Anything you have added will be wiped clean. The recovery disk will restore
your pc back to the way it came when you first turned it on.

Hi Bob . When I bought my PC 3 years ago , I got a Recovery Disk
with it , a Floppy Disk , which is supposed to bring the PC back to
day one, does this wipe the Hard Drive clean off all matter that I
have added to it over the years ?? Or does it have to be done by
a PC Teck . ?? Lionel.
