Uninstalling the HP Backup and Recovery Manager application
—The HP Backup and
Recovery Manager application can be uninstalled using the Programs and Features utility under
Windows Control Panel>Programs and Features
. When the application is uninstalled, the

Deleting the recovery partition or uninstalling the HP Backup and Recovery Manager
application reduces or eliminates the ability to recover the system.
Using the HP Backup and Restore process
The Windows operating system and device drivers (for devices included with the system) are reinstalled
using the HP Backup and Restore (HPBR) process. This process can be executed from a DVD, CD, or
from the recovery partition on your system hard drive.
To launch the HPBR, slect
Start>All Programs>HP Backup & Recovery>HP Backup and Recovery
Manager
.
CAUTION:
Before you attempt any operating system restore, backup your data. All data on the
Windows partition is deleted when you perform a system restore using the HPBR process. However,
the recovery partition on the system drive and other partitions will not be affected.
Creating system recovery DVDs or CDs
You can create a set of system recovery DVDs or CDs if you have a writable optical drive. After launching
the HP Backup and Restore Manager, you can create International Standards Organization (ISO)
images of the factory image, or write them directly to CD or DVD. You can also create a supplemental
HP Backup and Recovery Manager CD. (There may be additional CDs you can create depending on
the options purchased.) You can also move CD images to another location, such as a network share,
or to be copied to a DVD or CD at a later time or from another system.
Restoring from HPBR DVDs or CDs
To start the system recovery process, boot from the DVD or CD you created previously, then carefully
follow the online instructions.
Restoring a system directly from the recovery partition
Follow these steps to start the HPBR system restore process from the Recovery Manager:
1.
Boot the workstation.
2.
When prompted on the boot splash screen to enter the Recovery Manager, press
F11
.
3.
Follow the prompts to restore the system to factory-like condition.
