Disaster Recovery

If you are unable to use your HP V
or the rescue disks, and cannot restore your software from a backup copy,
you can use the Disaster Recovery disks provided with the workstation.
These disks reinstall the original software your workstation came with.
After using this process, you will have to reconfigure your workstation as

power and, as the boot process proceeds, place the Recovery CD in the
CD-ROM drive.

restore the workstation to its factory configuration, type the word,
recover, at the bottom of the screen and press
NOTE You cannot stop the Disaster Recovery process after you press
