    Can someone please help. I own a IBM Thinkpad R50e, and have had it for 3 months.

    I had a lot of junk installed, and decided to use the bacup disk I made when i first got my laptop, to restore it.

    I booted my laptop, press the Access IBM key and went into the rescue/recovery utility. I insterted the disk, it started restoring.
    It then told me to take out the disk, and restart the laptop. I did so....

    Now, whenever i turn on my laptop, without pressing the Access IBM key, it will automatically go into the rescue/recovery utility.

    NOTE - *I made the backup disk inside windows, using IBM rapid restore*

    Regards - Please Help

    You have to make the resote partition then restore it to its original state from the restore partition.
