Making a Recovery DVD
Please find instructions for Freshmen to aid in creating a Recovery DVD for the new HP laptops.
Why Create a Recovery DVD?
If your computer stops working properly, the only way to restore the factory settings and original software is to use a recovery DVD. Your new HP laptop has a backup and recovery DVD process. Please use this HP backup program to make a copy of your system. Once completed, please keep your backup in a safe place.
Instructions on how to complete the backup can be found by following this link: Backing up a Student Laptop
If you require further information, please contact Hewlett Packard at the 800 number contained in your laptop documentation.
