✎
You can only recover files that you have previously backed up. HP
recommends that you use HP Backup and Recovery Manager to
create an entire drive backup as soon as you set up your computer.
HP Backup and Recovery Manager helps you with the
following tasks for safeguarding your information and
restoring it in case of a system failure:
■ Recovering important files—This feature helps you
reinstall important files without performing a full system
recovery.
■ Performing a full system recovery—With HP Backup and
Recovery Manager, you can recover your full factory
image if you experience system failure or instability. HP
Backup and Recovery Manager works from a dedicated
recovery partition on the hard drive or from recovery
discs you create.

steps:
1. Back up all personal files.
2. Insert the first recovery disc into the optical drive and
restart the computer.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
