7 Backup and recovery Recovery after a system failure is as good as your most recent backup. HP recommends that you create recovery discs immediately after software setup. As you add new software and data files, you should continue to back up your system on a regular basis to maintain a reasonably current backup. Tools provided by the operating system and HP Recovery Manager software are designed to help you with the following tasks for safeguarding your information and restoring it in case of a computer failure: ● Creating a set of recovery discs (Recovery Manager software feature) ● Backing up your information ● Creating system restore points ● Recovering a program or driver ● Performing a full system recovery (from the partition or recovery discs) NOTE: Recovery discs have been included if your computer does not have a partition. Use these discs to recover your operating system and software. To check for the presence of a recovery partition, click Start, right-click Computer, click Manage, and then click Disk Management. If the partition is present, an HP Recovery drive is listed in the window. 90 Chapter 7 Backup and recovery
