Using f11 recovery tools
CAUTION: Using f11 completely erases hard drive contents and reformats the hard drive. All les 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 les.
2. If possible, check for the presence of the HP Recovery partition: From the Start screen, type C, and then
