Problem with recovery CD-ROMs:
Why does my Image Creation and
Recovery CD not create the utility
partition correctly?
!
This feature cannot work independently. First, create the HP utility
Partition. Then, create your main partition and install your
preferred operating system. Your HP Utility Partition should now
be ready for use.
Note: This problem only affects HP Image Creation and Recovery
CDs with the part numbers 5970-0170-xx and 5970-0190-xx.
When using the Image Creation and
Recovery CD-ROM, the PC stops. Why?
!
When the BIOS setup field "State after power failure" is set to "Off"
the PC stops and does not reboot correctly. To solve the problem,
manually power on the PC and continue the recovery process.
Why is my PC not booting from the
CD-ROM?
!
It is likely that some BIOS-level settings (boot device order,
security settings etc.) do not have correct values. Restart your PC
and enter the Setup program by pressing the appropriate function
key (F2 on most HP PC models, or F1 on others). Change the
incorrect settings, then try booting from the CD-ROM again.
It is also possible that the CD-ROM drive is not connected
properly.
