Performing a recovery
NOTE: You can recover only files that you have previously backed up. HP recommends that you use
HP Recovery Manager to create a set of recovery discs (entire drive backup) as soon as you set up
your computer.
Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or restore the system if you experience system failure
or instability. Recovery Manager works from recovery discs or from a dedicated recovery partition (select
models only) on the hard drive. However, if your computer includes a solid-state drive (SSD), you may
not have a recovery partition. If that is the case, recovery discs have been included with your computer.
Use these discs to recover your operating system and software.
NOTE: Windows has its own built-in repair features, such as System Restore. If you have not already
tried these features, try them before using Recovery Manager.
NOTE: Recovery Manager recovers 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.
Recovering from the recovery discs
To restore the system from the recovery discs:
1. Back up all personal files.
2. Insert the first recovery disc into an optional external optical drive and restart the computer.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
Recovering from the dedicated recovery partition (select models only)
NOTE: Computers with an SSD may not have a recovery partition. If the computer does not have a
recovery partition, you will not be able to recover using this procedure. Recovery discs have been
included for computers that do not have a partition. Use these discs to recover your operating system
and software.
On some models, you can perform a recovery from the partition on the hard drive, accessed by pressing
either the Start button or f11. This restores the computer to its factory condition.
To restore the system from the partition, follow these steps:
1. Access Recovery Manager in either of the following ways:
Select Start > All Programs > Recovery Manager > Recovery Manager.
– or –
Turn on or restart the computer, and then press esc while the “Press the ESC key for Startup
Menu” message is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Then, press f11 while the “Press
<F11> for recovery” message is displayed on the screen.
2. Click System Recovery in the Recovery Manager window.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.
