Boot up the SUSE10 restore DVD that came with the 2133 on an external USB DVD rom and follow the instructions.

After downloading the file, you will need to burn the ISO file to a DVD with a DVD burning program.

After that, you need to boot off the DVD to restore the hard drive to it's original state.

Anyone have a working link? And also, is it possible to do it from a jumpdrive?
