   AST has provided a diskette labeled "Hard Disk Restore for AST 
   Multimedia Systems."  Use of this diskette along with the

   original state.  
      
   Using this method to correct problems with software is suggested 
   as a last choice.  Use of this utility will result in the loss of 
   ALL data not originally on the computer.  Please make a backup of
