Using f11 recovery tools
CAUTION: Using f11 completely erases hard drive contents and reformats the hard drive. All files
that you have created and any software that you have installed on the computer are permanently
removed. The f11 recovery tool reinstalls the operating system and HP programs and drivers that
were installed at the factory. Software not installed at the factory must be reinstalled.
To recover the original hard drive image using f11:
1. If possible, back up all personal files.
2. If possible, check for the presence of the HP Recovery partition: From the Start screen, type C,
and then select Computer.
NOTE: If the HP Recovery partition is not listed, you must recover your operating system and
programs using the Windows 8 operating system media, and the Driver Recovery media (both
purchased separately). For additional information, see
Using Windows 8 operating system
media (purchased separately) on page 158.
3. If the HP Recovery partition is listed, restart the computer, and then press esc while the
company logo is displayed. The computer Startup Menu displays.

CAUTION: Using Windows 8 operating system media completely erases hard drive contents and
reformats the hard drive. All files that you have created and any software that you have installed on
the computer are permanently removed. When reformatting is complete, the recovery process helps
