IMPORTANT:
If your computer does not list a Recovery Media Creation option, you can obtain recovery
media for your system from support. See the
Worldwide Telephone Numbers
booklet included with the
computer. You can also find contact information from the HP website. Go to
select your country or region, and follow the on-screen instructions.
HP Recovery Manager is a software program that allows you to create recovery media after you successfully
set up the computer. HP Recovery media can be used to perform system recovery if the hard drive becomes
corrupted. System recovery reinstalls the original operating system and the software programs installed at
the factory and then configures the settings for the programs. HP Recovery media can also be used to
customize the system or restore the factory image if you replace the hard drive.
