To Prepare A New Hard Disk Drive - HP Pavilion XT115 Reference Manual

To prepare a new hard disk drive

When you install a new hard disk drive, you also need to prepare it to be able to work
with your computer.
If you want to restore the Windows software and operating system that were
originally installed on your computer, you can do so using the Recovery CD or DVD
that also came with your computer. See "To recover the factory installation of your
hard disk" on page 122.
