    1) The hard disk is divided into 3 drives ( SW_Preload (C :), Lenovo (Q :), Servicev003 (S :)) What is the function of the S:???
    2) How can I generate a recovery disc?
    3) Does the Windows install in the C: ? or S:?

    thx

    1) S: has the "Pre-Desktop Environment" that is used for restoring the x200 to factory using the image on Q:.

    2) You should be able to double click on Q: and start up the wizard. Otherwise, just look in the start menu for "Make recovery discs" or something similar (should be under ThinkVantage).

    3) The Windows OS is on C:. However, I believe the bootloader is on S: by default (I haven't had a factory install in moths so I can't recall exactly).
