HP Compaq Business Notebook nc6000 Series - System Recovery Overview
Introduction
Safeguarding data
Software or devices added to the notebook can cause the system
to become unstable. To safeguard documents, store personal
files in the My Documents folder and periodically create a
backup copy of My Documents.
Setting system restore points
Notebooks with Windows XP operating systems provide the
option of setting system restore points (benchmarks) daily as
personal settings are changed. The notebook may also set
restore points when new software or devices are added.
Set system restore points periodically when the notebook is
functioning at optimal performance and before installing new
software or devices. This enables the return to a previous
configuration restore point if problems are encountered.
Follow these steps to set a system restore point:
-
Click Start, then Help and Support.
-
Select the Use Tools to view your computer information and diagnose problems task.
-
Click System Restore. A System Restore window opens.
-
Follow the onscreen directions for setting a restore point.
Follow these steps to restore the notebook to a previous date and time when it was
functioning optimally:
-
Click Start, Help and Support, and Tools.
-
Click System Restore.
-
Follow the onscreen directions for restoring the notebook.
