HP Restore Discs

Restore Discs are shipped with HP Compaq nc4200 models. The two discs provide an easy-to-use
complete restore solution for preinstalled operating systems. This restore solution allows users to
selectively install and repair the OS, drivers, and applications without destroying important data; or to
perform a full preinstalled software restoration.
• The OS disc contains the preinstalled operating system and allows for reinstallation of the operating
system on top of the current installation.
• The Driver Recover disc allows installation from a menu of preinstalled drivers, utilities, and
applications that are preinstalled on the computer.
• Additional applications CDs are included on select models.
