Creating recovery media and backups
Recovery after a system failure is only as good as your most recent backup.
1. After you successfully set up the computer, create HP Recovery media. This step creates a Windows 7
operating system DVD and a Driver Recovery DVD. The Windows DVD can be used to reinstall the original
operating system in cases where the hard drive is corrupted or has been replaced. The Driver Recovery
DVD installs specic drivers and applications. See Creating recovery media with HP Recovery Disc

NOTE: This guide describes an overview of backing up, restoring, and recovering options. For more details

Guidelines
