A Backup And Recovery; Creating Recovery Discs - HP 443562-001 Getting Started

Creating recovery discs

After setting up the computer for the first time, be sure to
create a set of recovery discs of the full factory image. The
recovery discs are used to start up (boot) the computer and
recover the operating system and software to factory settings
in case of system instability or failure.
Note the following guidelines before creating recovery discs:
You will need high-quality CD-R, DVD-R, or DVD+R discs
(purchased separately).
Read-write discs, such as CD-RW and DVD+/-RW
discs, are not compatible with HP Backup & Recovery
Manager.
The computer must be connected to AC power during the
process.
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 cancel the disc creation before you
have finished creating the recovery discs. The next time
you select Create a set of recovery discs (Recommended),
you will be prompted to continue the disc creation.
