Notebook Requirements
The HP Backup and Recovery Manager operations are intensive for the
hard disk and CD or DVD drive and all drives require a lot of power under
such usage. The HP Backup and Recovery Manager, therefore, requires
that notebook computers use AC power when this application is running
and while all scheduled backup operations are taking place.
HP Recovery Partition Removal Wizard
The HP Backup and Recovery Manager contains an application for
removing the Recovery Partition, should that be desired or necessary.
Why HP Recommends Users Preserve the Recovery
Partition
The Recovery Partition contains a record of all software installed at the
factory and shipped with this system, including the ISO images for the
Microsoft Operating System, HP Restore Plus! and other supplemental and
recovery products, as appropriate. The HP Backup and Recovery Manager
uses this record to recover the system hard drive. Removing the Recovery
Partition destroys this record.
If necessary, the Recovery Partition may be removed. Before doing so,
however, the Recovery Media Creator should be run to create a disc
backup of the software on the Recovery Partition, including all ISO images.
