Recovering the original system using HP Recovery Manager
HP Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or recover the computer to its original factory state.
What you need to know
●
HP Recovery Manager recovers only software that was installed at the factory. For software not
provided with this computer, you must either download the software from the manufacturer's website
or reinstall the software from the disc provided by the manufacturer.
●
A system recovery should be used as a final attempt to correct computer issues. If you have not already
tried restore points (see
Restoring to a previous system restore point on page 78
) and partial restores
(see
Restoring specific files on page 78
), try them before using HP Recovery Manager to recover your
system.
●
A system recovery must be performed if the computer hard drive fails or if all attempts to correct any
functional computer issues fail.
●
If the recovery media do not work, you can obtain recovery discs for your system from the HP website.
●
The Minimized Image Recovery option is recommended for advanced users only. All hardware-related
drivers and software are re-installed, but other software applications are not. Do not
interrupt the process until it is complete, otherwise the recovery will fail.
Recovering using HP Recovery partition (select models only)
The HP Recovery partition (select models only), allows you to restore your system without the need for
recovery discs or a recovery flash drive. This type of recovery can only be used if the hard drive is still
working.
To check for the presence of a recovery partition, select Start, right-click Computer then select Manage >
Disk Management. If the recovery partition is present, a Recovery drive is listed in the window.
NOTE:
Recovery discs have been included if your computer did not ship with a recovery partition.
