Creating recovery media using HP Recovery Manager (select models only)
●
To create recovery discs, your computer must have a DVD writer. Use DVD+R or DVD-R discs (purchased
separately). The discs you use will depend on the type of optical drive you are using.
NOTE:
●
You have the option of creating a recovery USB flash drive instead, using a high-quality USB drive.
●
If you are creating recovery discs, be sure to use high-quality discs. It is normal for the system to reject
defective discs. You will be prompted to insert a new blank disc to try again.
●
The number of discs in the recovery-disc set depends on your computer model (typically 3 to 6 DVDs).
The Recovery Media Creation program tells you the specific number of blank discs needed to make the
set. If you are using a USB flash drive, the program will tell you the size of the drive required to store all
the data (minimum of 8 GB).
NOTE:
next time you initiate the process, it resumes where it left off.
NOTE:
Do not use media cards for creating recovery media. The system may not be able to boot up from a
media card and you may not be able to run system recovery.
