Using Application Recovery and System Recovery
Before using the HP Pavilion System Recovery or Application Recovery program, use System Restore.
Note: Your PC does not include recovery CDs. Recovery CDs contain a complete image of the original HP Pavilion home PC hard drive contents. You can make your own recovery CDs; see “Using HP Recovery CD Creator” on page 83.
System Restore
Warning: Try System Restore before using the HP Pavilion System Recovery
program.
If software on your hard drive accidentally gets erased or damaged, first use the Microsoft System Restore feature in Windows XP to restore the computer system and program settings.
System Restore returns the computer settings to a selected restore point without affecting user programs or document files. For more information, type System Restore into the Search box in Help and Support.
