B Backup and recovery 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). ✎ Formatted DVD±RW discs and DVD±RW double-layer discs are not compatible with HP Backup & Recovery Manager. ■ The computer must be connected to AC power during the process. ■ Only one set of 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. Getting Started B-1
