Note: Downgrade or Upgrade is only possible if the current Microsoft® OS was provided by Hatteland Display initially. If not provided by Hatteland Display the system shall be handled as if the system was delivered without Microsoft® OS installed prior to any ordering request (transforms to Add OS).

During Downgrade, Upgrade, Add or Change OS customer must ensure backup of important data prior to booting any of the options above, as in all situations the entire storage device is “reset” back to factory default erasing any other data on the storage device.

Change (32/64bit) OS / Restore and Recovery – Ordering information

This kit contains USB Memory Stick with image.

Note: The Recovery function provided on the USB Memory Stick is not a recover (rescue) of lost or damaged data/files currently located on the storage device. The Recovery function only re-installs the same OS as originally installed and is intended for use if the current OS was damaged or did not function properly. The current contents of the storage device is therefore fully overwritten by the Recovery function.
