1 Creating recovery discs

After setting up the computer for the first time, be sure to create a set of recovery discs of the full factory

image. The recovery discs are used to start up (boot) the computer and recover the operating system

and software to factory settings in case of system instability or failure.

Note the following guidelines before creating recovery discs:

●You will need high-quality CD-R, DVD-R, or DVD+R media (purchased separately).

NOTE: Read-write discs, such as CD-RW and DVD±RW discs, are not compatible with Backup

& Recovery Manager.

●The computer must be connected to AC power during the process.

●Only one set of the recovery discs can be created per computer.

●Number each disc before inserting it into the optical drive of the computer.

●If necessary, you can cancel the disc creation before you have finished creating the recovery discs.

The next time you select Create a set of recovery discs (Recommended), you will be prompted

to continue the disc creation.

To create a set of recovery discs:

1. Select Start >All Programs >HP Backup & Recovery >Backup & Recovery Manager.

2. Click Next.

3. Click Create a set of recovery discs (Recommended), and then click Next.

4. Follow the on-screen instructions.

2 Backing up your information

NOTE: You can only recover files that you have previously backed up. HP recommends that you use

HP Backup & Recovery Manager to create an entire drive backup as soon as you set up your computer.

With HP Backup & Recovery Manager, you can perform the following tasks:

●Backing up your information regularly to protect your important system files

●Creating system recovery points that allow you to reverse undesireable changes to your computer

by restoring the computer to an earlier state

●Scheduling backups at specific intervals or events

to disc.

●Store personal files in the Documents folder and back up these folders periodically.

The screen shot can be a time saver if you have to reset your preferences.

To copy the screen and paste it into a word-processing document:

a. Display the screen.

b. Copy the screen.

To copy only the active window, press alt+fn+prt sc.

To copy the entire screen, press fn+prt sc.
