during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer.  
Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to unseat  
or seat the cables during removal and insertion. Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In  
all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing cables. Be sure that cables are routed in such a way that  
they cannot be caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Handle flex cables with extreme  
care; these cables tear easily.  
Drive handling  
CAUTION: Drives are fragile components that must be handled with care. To prevent damage to the  
computer, damage to a drive, or loss of information, observe these precautions:  
Before removing or inserting a hard drive, shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the  
computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating  
system.  
Before handling a drive, be sure that you are discharged of static electricity. While handling a drive,  
avoid touching the connector.  
Before removing a diskette drive or optical drive, be sure that a diskette or disc is not in the drive and  
be sure that the optical drive tray is closed.  
Handle drives on surfaces covered with at least one inch of shock-proof foam.  
Avoid dropping drives from any height onto any surface.  
After removing a hard drive, an optical drive, or a diskette drive, place it in a static-proof bag.  
Avoid exposing a hard drive to products that have magnetic fields, such as monitors or speakers.  
Avoid exposing a drive to temperature extremes or liquids.  
If a drive must be mailed, place the drive in a bubble pack mailer or other suitable form of protective  
packaging and label the package “FRAGILE.”

Grounding guidelines  
Electrostatic discharge damage  
Electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure  
determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection,  
but in many cases, ESD contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions.  
A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or  
microcircuitry. Even if the spark is neither felt nor heard, damage may have occurred.  
An electronic device exposed to ESD may not be affected at all and can work perfectly throughout a  
normal cycle. Or the device may function normally for a while, then degrade in the internal layers,  
reducing its life expectancy.  
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the computer when you are removing or installing internal  
components, observe these precautions:  
Keep components in their electrostatic-safe containers until you area ready to install them.  
Use nonmagnetic tools.  
Before touching an electronic component, discharge static electricity by using the guidelines described  
in this section.  
Avoid touching pins, leads, and circuitry. Handle electronic components as little as possible.  
If you remove a component, place it in an electrostatic-safe container.  
The following table shows how humidity affects the electrostatic voltage levels generated by different  
activities.  
CAUTION: A product can be degraded by as little as 700 V.

Packaging and transporting guidelines  
Follow these grounding guidelines when packaging and transporting equipment:  
To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe tubes, bags, or boxes.  
Protect ESD-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or packaging.  
Keep ESD-sensitive parts in their containers until the parts arrive at static-free workstations.  
Place items on a grounded surface before removing items from their containers.  
Always be properly grounded when touching a component or assembly.  
Store reusable ESD-sensitive parts from assemblies in protective packaging or nonconductive  
foam.  
Use transporters and conveyors made of antistatic belts and roller bushings. Be sure that  
mechanized equipment used for moving materials is wired to ground and that proper materials are  
selected to avoid static charging. When grounding is not possible, use an ionizer to dissipate  
electric charges.  
Workstation guidelines  
Follow these grounding workstation guidelines:  
Cover the workstation with approved static-shielding material.  
Use a wrist strap connected to a properly grounded work surface and use properly grounded tools  
and equipment.  
Use conductive field service tools, such as cutters, screwdrivers, and vacuums.  
When fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces, use fixtures made only of static-safe  
materials.  
Keep the work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and  
Styrofoam.  
Handle ESD-sensitive components, parts, and assemblies by the case or PCM laminate. Handle  
these items only at static-free workstations.  
Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.  
Turn off power and input signals before inserting or removing connectors or test equipment.

Equipment guidelines  
Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation.  
When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible straps  
with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper ground,  
wear a strap snugly against the skin at all times. On grounded mats with banana-plug connectors,  
use alligator clips to connect a wrist strap.  
When standing, use foot straps and a grounded floor mat. Foot straps (heel, toe, or boot straps)  
can be used at standing workstations and are compatible with most types of shoes or boots. On  
conductive floors or dissipative floor mats, use foot straps on both feet with a minimum of one  
megohm resistance between the operator and ground. To be effective, the conductive strips must  
be worn in contact with the skin.  
The following grounding equipment is recommended to prevent electrostatic damage:  
Antistatic tape  
Antistatic smocks, aprons, and sleeve protectors  
Conductive bins and other assembly or soldering aids  
Nonconductive foam  
Conductive tabletop workstations with ground cords of one megohm resistance  
Static-dissipative tables or floor mats with hard ties to the ground  
Field service kits  
Static awareness labels  
Material-handling packages  
Nonconductive plastic bags, tubes, or boxes  
Metal tote boxes

8 Backup and recovery  
Recovering system information  
Tools provided by the operating system and Recovery Manager software are designed to help you with  
the following tasks for safeguarding your information and restoring it in case of a system failure:  
Backing up your information regularly to protect your important system files.  
Making a set of recovery discs (Recovery Manager software feature). Recovery discs are used to  
start up (boot) your computer and restore the operating system and software programs to factory  
settings in case of system failure or instability.  
Creating system restore points (operating system feature). System restore points allow you to  
reverse undesirable changes to your computer by restoring the computer to an earlier state.  
Recovering a program or driver (Recovery Manager software feature). This feature helps you  
reinstall a program or driver without performing a full system recovery.  
Performing a full system recovery (Recovery Manager software feature). With Recovery Manager,  
you can recover your full factory image if you experience system failure or instability. Recovery  
Manager works from a dedicated recovery partition on the hard drive or from recovery discs you  
create.  
Creating recovery discs  
After setting up the computer for the first time, be sure to create a set of recovery discs of the full factory  
image. The recovery discs are used to start up (boot) the computer and recover the operating system  
and software to factory settings in case of system instability or failure.  
NOTE: Handle these discs carefully and keep them in a safe place. The software allows the creation  
of only one set of recovery discs.  
Note the following guidelines before creating recovery discs:  
Use any of the following types of discs: CD-R, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD-R or DVD-R DL  
(purchased separately). The discs you use will depend on the type of optical drive installed in your  
computer. Because DVDs store more information than CDs, DVDs and DVDs with double-layer  
(DL) support reduce the number of discs required.  
NOTE: Read-write discs, such as CD-RW, DVD+RW, and DVD-RW, are not compatible with the  
Recovery Manager software.  
The computer must be connected to AC power during this process.  
Only one set of recovery discs can be created per computer.  
146 Chapter 8 Backup and recovery  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
       
Number each disc before inserting it into the computer optical drive.  
If necessary, you can exit the program before you have finished creating the recovery discs. The  
next time you open Recovery Manager, you will be prompted to continue the disc creation process.  
To create a set of recovery discs:  
1. Select Start > All Programs > Recovery Manager > Recovery Manager.  
Recovery Manager opens.  
2. Click Advanced Options.  
NOTE: If you are operating the computer on battery power, you will be prompted to connect to  
AC power before you can go to the next step.  
3. Click Recovery disc creation, and then click Next.  
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.  
Backing up your information  
When to back up  
On a regularly scheduled basis  
NOTE: Set reminders to back up your information periodically.  
Before the computer is repaired or restored  
Before you add or modify hardware or software  
Backup suggestions  
Create a set of recovery discs using Recovery Manager.  
Create system restore points using the Windows® System Restore feature, and periodically copy  
them to disc.  
Store personal files in the Documents folder and back up these folders periodically.  
Back up templates stored in their associated programs.  
Save customized settings in a window, toolbar, or menu bar by taking a screen shot of your settings.  
The screen shot can be a time saver if you have to reset your preferences.  
To copy the screen and paste it into a word-processing document, follow these steps:  
a. Display the screen.  
b. Copy the screen:  
To copy only the active window, press alt+fn+prt sc.  
To copy the entire screen, press fn+prt sc.  
c. Open a word-processing document, and then select Edit > Paste.

Using system restore points  
When you back up your system, you are creating a system restore point. A system restore point allows  
you to save and name a snapshot of your hard drive at a specific point in time. You can then recover  
back to that point if you want to reverse subsequent changes made to your system.  
NOTE: Recovering to an earlier restore point does not affect data files saved or e-mails created since  
the last restore point.  
You also can create additional restore points to provide increased protection for your system files and  
settings.  
When to create restore points  
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware  
Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally  
NOTE: If you revert to a restore point and then change your mind, you can reverse the restoration.  
Create a system restore point  
1. Select Start > Control Panel > System and Maintenance > System.  
2. In the left pane, click System protection.  
3. Click the System Protection tab.  
4. Under Automatic restore points, select the disk for which you want to create a restore point.  
5. Click Create.  
The System Protection window opens.  
6. Follow the on-screen instructions.  
Restore to a previous date and time  
To revert to a restore point (created at a previous date and time), when the computer was functioning  
optimally, follow these steps:  
1. Select Start > Control Panel > System and Maintenance > System.  
2. In the left pane, click System protection.  
3. Click the System Protection tab.  
4. Click the System Restore button, and then click Next.  
The System Restore window opens.  
5. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Performing a recovery  
NOTE: You can only recover files that you have previously backed up. HP recommends that you use  
Recovery Manager to create an entire drive backup as soon as you set up your computer.  
Recovery Manager software allows you to repair or restore the system if you experience system failure  
or instability. Recovery Manager works from recovery discs that you create or from a dedicated recovery  
partition on the hard drive.  
NOTE: Windows has its own built-in repair features, such as System Restore and driver roll-back  
capabilities. If you have not already tried these features, try them before using Recovery Manager.  
NOTE: Recovery Manager recovers only software that was preinstalled at the factory. Software not  
provided with this computer must be downloaded from the manufacturer's Web site or reinstalled from  
the disc provided by the manufacturer.  
Recovering from the recovery discs  
To restore the system from the recovery discs:  
1. Back up all personal files.  
2. Insert the first recovery disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.  
3. Follow the on-screen instructions.  
Recovering from the partition on the hard drive  
You can perform a recovery from the partition on the hard drive from either the Start button or f11.  
To restore the system from the partition, follow these steps:  
1. Access Recovery Manager in either of the following ways:  
Select Start > All Programs > Recovery Manager > Recovery Manager.  
–or–  
Restart the computer and press f11 while the “Press <F11> for recovery” message is displayed  
on the screen. Then select Recovery Manager.  
Recovery Manager opens.  
2. Click Advanced Options.  
3. Click System recovery, and then click Next.  
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.
