Performing a system recovery
Recovery allows you to repair or restore the computer to its original factory state. You can create an
HP Factory Image Restore DVD, using an installed or an external DVD±RW optical drive.
CAUTION:
Using Recovery completely erases hard drive contents and reformats the hard drive. All
files you have created and any software installed on the computer are permanently removed. The
recovery tool reinstalls the original operating system and HP programs and drivers that were installed
at the factory. Software, drivers, and updates not installed by HP must be manually reinstalled.
Personal files must be restored from a backup.
