using recovery cd-dvd creator Make recovery CDs or DVDs for your PC by using the HP PC Recovery CD-DVD Creator program before you experience any problem. The recovery discs set may also be ordered at a charge through Support. Refer to the Warranty & Support Guide for Support contact information. The recovery discs set is a complete image of the original PC hard disk drive contents, and is matched to your PC model number. The discs set contains the operating system, drivers and application software that were originally installed on the PC at the factory. You can use this program to make only one set of recovery CDs or DVDs for your PC. The recovery discs you create can be used only on your PC. There are several advantages in using DVDs instead of CDs when creating your recovery discs set: • With a faster data transfer rate, a set of DVD recovery discs will have your PC running much sooner than a CD set will. • A set of DVDs will probably take you less time to create than a set of CDs. • A DVD has more capacity than a CD, so there are fewer discs to record and store. To use this program, your PC must have a CD-RW drive, DVD Writer drive, or other drive that can write to the CDs or DVDs. If necessary, purchase a Windows XP-compatible drive from your local PC or electronics store. The number of CDs/DVDs in the recovery set depends on your PC model. The program tells you the number of blank discs needed to make the set. The process takes some time, including up to 15 minutes per disc to verify that the information written on the disc is correct. You can quit the process at any time. The next time you run the program, it begins where you left off. 90 user's guide

using recovery cd-dvd creator
Make recovery CDs or DVDs for your PC by using the HP PC Recovery
CD-DVD Creator program before you experience any problem.
The recovery discs set may also be ordered at a charge through Support. Refer to
the
Warranty & Support Guide
for Support contact information.
The recovery discs set is a complete image of the original PC hard disk drive
contents, and is matched to your PC model number. The discs set contains the
operating system, drivers and application software that were originally installed
on the PC at the factory.
You can use this program to make only one set of recovery CDs or DVDs for
your PC. The recovery discs you create can be used only on your PC.
There are several advantages in using DVDs instead of CDs when creating your
recovery discs set:
With a faster data transfer rate, a set of DVD recovery discs will have your PC
running much sooner than a CD set will.
A set of DVDs will probably take you less time to create than a set of CDs.
A DVD has more capacity than a CD, so there are fewer discs to record and
store.
To use this program, your PC must have a CD-RW drive, DVD Writer drive, or
other drive that can write to the CDs or DVDs. If necessary, purchase a
Windows XP-compatible drive from your local PC or electronics store.
The number of CDs/DVDs in the recovery set depends on your PC model. The
program tells you the number of blank discs needed to make the set. The process
takes some time, including up to 15 minutes per disc to verify that the
information written on the disc is correct.
You can quit the process at any time. The next time you run the program, it
begins where you left off.
