6 System Recovery
System Recovery completely erases and reformats the hard drive, deleting all data files you have
created, and then reinstalls the operating system, programs, and drivers that were installed at the
factory. Therefore, you must manually reinstall any software that was installed after the computer left
the factory.
NOTE: Always use the System Restore procedure before you use the System Recovery program.
See “Microsoft System Restore,” under Software troubleshooting on page 14 .
Some features might not be available on systems that are shipped without a version of Microsoft
Windows.
Choosing a system recovery method
You must choose one of the following methods to perform a system recovery:
●
Recovery Image—Run System Recovery from a recovery image stored on your hard drive. The
recovery image is a file that contains a copy of the original factory-shipped software. To perform
a System Recovery from a recovery image, see System recovery from the Windows Start screen
on page 16
NOTE: The recovery image uses a portion of the hard drive that cannot be used for data
storage.
●
Recovery Media—Run System Recovery from recovery media that you create from files stored
on your hard drive or purchased separately. To create recovery media, see Creating recovery
media on page 18 .
System recovery options
You should attempt a system recovery in the following order:
1. Through the hard drive, from the Windows Start screen.
2. Through the hard drive, by pressing f11 system startup.
3. Through recovery media that you create.
4. Through recovery discs purchased from HP. To purchase recovery discs, go to
