IMPORTANT: HP Recovery Manager does not automatically provide backups of your personal data. Before
beginning recovery, back up any personal data you want to retain.
Using HP Recovery media, you can choose from one of the following recovery options:
NOTE: Only the options available for your computer display when you start the recovery process.
System Recovery Reinstalls the original operating system, and then congures the settings for the
programs that were installed at the factory.
Minimized Image Recovery (select products only) Reinstalls the operating system and all hardware-
related drivers and software, but not other software applications.
Factory Reset Restores the computer to its original factory state by deleting all information from the
hard drive and re-creating the partitions. Then it reinstalls the operating system and the software that
was installed at the factory.
The HP Recovery partition (select products only) allows System Recovery and, on select products, Minimized
Image Recovery.

The HP Recovery partition allows you to perform a system recovery or, on select products, minimized image
recovery without the need for recovery discs or a recovery USB ash drive. This type of recovery can be used
only if the hard drive is still working.
