Using a Windows Vista operating system DVD (purchased
separately)
If you are unable to boot (start up) your computer, you must purchase a Windows Vista operating
system DVD to reboot the computer and repair the operating system. Make sure that your most recent
backup (stored on discs or on an external drive) is easily accessible. To order a Windows Vista
operating system DVD, go to
http://www.hp.com/support, select your country or region, and follow
the on-screen instructions. You can also order the DVD by calling technical support. For contact
information, refer to the Worldwide Telephone Numbers booklet included with the computer.

reformats the hard drive. All files you have created and any software installed on the computer are
permanently removed. When reformatting is complete, the recovery process helps you restore the
operating system, as well as drivers, software, and utilities.
To initiate recovery using a Windows Vista operating system DVD, follow these steps:
