    If your HDD has more than one partition and you want to install OS on partition C do it in this way:

    1. Put recovery DVD into the DVD drive and switch the unit ON
    2. Immediately press C button and hold it down for a few seconds. On this way the DVD drive will be used as first boot device
    3. Choose expert mode installation and there you will find way to install “Local – Partition – From image” and choose GHO image in menu
    4. Next window is “Select source partition from image file” – confirm with OK
    5. Next window is info about local destination drive – confirm with OK
    6. It will show ur HD and then press Ener and it will show your partitions.
    7. On next step you have to choose the destination partition - there should be shown more of them (all created on your HDD) - Confirm that you want to write on partition number 1 (C) and press OK
    7. "TOSHIBA Recovery Tool" is unpacking and OS installation will starts.
