Restoring Damaged or Erased Files With Roxio BackUp MyPC software, you can schedule a complete disaster recovery backup without having to re-install Windows or any other software programs. An integrated disaster recovery process starts the computer from a customized set of backup media (Disaster Recovery Set), restores the operating system, and then recovers your data to the state it was in when the Disaster Recovery Set was created. Before performing a disaster recovery, you may want to try other options. For example, if the problem appears to be a Windows system problem, try to recover by following the steps in the documentation that came with your computer. If you have a backup of your files, you can also re-install Windows, reinstall your backup software, and then selectively restore the rest of the files you need. This last option may be the best choice if your hardware configuration has changed since you created your Disaster Recovery Set. To restore files on your computer: 1 Make sure the Roxio BackUp MyPC for HP software is installed. See "Installing Drivers and Software" on page 5. 2 Restart your computer. 3 Click the Windows Start Button . 4 Choose All Programs, choose Roxio, Backup MyPC, and then click Backup MyPC. 5 Select a blank backup job, and then click OK. 6 Click the Tools menu, and then click Restore Wizard. 7 Follow the onscreen instructions. You can click the Help menu, and then select Backup MyPC Help for more information about this program. Transferring files to another computer manually You can transfer your computer profile information, which includes how your computer looks and feels as well as the personal files such as photos, music, or video you have created. To transfer your files manually: 1 Connect the drive to the computer. 2 Select your files and then drag and drop them to the HP Pocket Media Drive in the Computer window. 3 Disconnect the drive and then connect it to another computer. 4 Select your files and then drag and drop them to the new computer's hard disk drive. Playing games CD-ROM games typically run faster when they are installed on a hard disk drive than when they run on a CD. You can use your HP Pocket Media Drive to store and play CD-ROM games.
