HP Recovery CD/DVD Creator allows you to create a set of
recovery discs for the computer. The recovery discs are used to
boot up your computer and recover the operating system and
software applications to factory settings, in case of system failure
or instability.
Note the following considerations before creating recovery discs:
■�
You will need high quality CD-R, DVD-R, or DVD+R
media, purchased separately.
■�
Only one set of recovery discs can be created per
computer.
■�
Number each disc before inserting it into the optical drive
of the computer.
■�
If necessary, you can exit the program before you have
finished creating the recovery discs. The next time you
open HP Recovery CD/DVD Creator, you will be
prompted to continue the disc creation process where
you left off.
To create a set of recovery discs:
1. Select Start > All Programs > HP Backup & Recovery >
HP Backup and Recovery Manager.
2. Click Next.
3. Click Create factory software recovery CDs or DVDs to
recover the system (highly recommended).
4. Click Next.
The Recovery CD/DVD Creator Wizard opens.
5. Click Next.
6. Follow the on-screen instructions to create the recovery discs.
