Restore methods
The Windows Business Vista operating system can be reinstalled using the HP RestorePlus! process. The
Windows XP Professional operating system can be reinstalled using the RestorePlus! process or the HP
Backup and Recovery Manager.
●
RestorePlus!
The RestorePlus! process reinstalls the Windows operating system and device drivers (for devices
included with the system) to a near-factory state. The process does not back up or recover data on
the hard drive. Some application software might not be restored using this process and must be
installed from the appropriate application CD.
●
HP Backup and Recovery Manager (HPBR) Recovery Point
The HP Backup and Recovery Manager application can be used to capture and restore the
contents of the system partition. It captures a snapshot of the system partition and stores it in a
Recovery Point. Everything on the system partition at the time the recovery point was made is
saved.
NOTE:
HP Backup and Restore is only supported on the HP xw6600 and xw8600
Workstations.
The Recovery Point is saved to the hard drive and can be burned to media for safekeeping.
CAUTION:
These methods restore the operating system, but not data. Data must be backed up
regularly to avoid loss.
