Once you have restarted your computer, the HP Disaster Recovery Wizard should appear and guide you through the rest of the recovery process.

When the HP Disaster Recovery Wizard appears, it is an indication that your drive is responding properly to your current Disaster Recovery Set. Click Cancel to exit, remove any diskettes and CDs from your drive(s) and restart your computer. If you are performing an actual recovery, proceed to the next step.
