Setup Utilities and Diagnostic Features

2.3.1 Ordering Backup Software

You can order all software that shipped with the product from HP as a single set, or you can order the various software packages separately.

Before calling HP to place your order, be sure to have the serial number of the computer available. This number is necessary for all diskette purchases.

2.3.2 Restore CD

The Windows-based systems ship with either the Restore CD or the Restore Plus! CD that offer easy deployment and recovery of system software. Along with the Microsoft operating system CD, the Restore and Restore Plus! CDs enable the user to selectively restore the original system software. This can be extremely helpful in the event of hard drive failure or corruption. Required drivers that are not included on the Restore CD or the Restore Plus! CD may be downloaded from the HP web site at www.hp.com.
