Performing a system restore
HP Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or restore the computer to its original factory
state. HP Recovery Manager works from recovery discs, a recovery flash drive, or from a dedicated
recovery partition (select models only) on the hard drive.
NOTE: A system restore needs to be performed if the computer hard drive has failed or if all
attempts to correct any functional computer issues fail. A system restore should be used as a final
attempt to correct computer issues.
Note the following when performing a system restore:
●
You can restore only the system that you have previously backed up. HP recommends that you
use HP Recovery Manager to create either a set of recovery discs or a recovery flash drive as
soon as you set up the computer.
●
Windows has its own built-in repair features, such as System Restore. If you have not already
tried these features, try them before using HP Recovery Manager.
●
HP Recovery Manager restores only software that was preinstalled at the factory. Software not
provided with this computer must be downloaded from the manufacturer's Web site or reinstalled
from the disc provided by the manufacturer.
