When you have finished reinstalling, restart the computer. Do not skip this last step. You must restart the computer after recovering software programs or hardware drivers. Maintenance It is important that you perform simple maintenance of your computer to ensure that it works at peak performance. Weekly Software cleanup Use Disk Cleanup or safe third-party cleaning tools to remove junk files and temporary files that accumulate and slow down your system. Also, check for programs you no longer need and uninstall them. Defragmentation Run Disk Defragmenter to keep your hard disk in good condition and improve system performance. Frequently performing this task does not harm your system. Virus scan Perform a full virus scan every week to catch viruses that might have slipped through unnoticed. Most antivirus products have a scheduling feature to keep track of this automatically. Monthly Hardware cleanup Thoroughly clean the inside and outside of your computer. Software updates Use Windows Updates to fix operating system bugs and improve performance. Also, be sure to check for driver updates for your hardware and new versions of your favorite programs. Windows Update Run Windows Update monthly to install updates. Hard disk diagnostic Sometimes a failing hard disk can be caught beforehand by using Hard Disk Diagnostic. Yearly System Recovery 14 In time, your system might still get bogged down, depending on the computer usage. Use System Recovery to wipe your Windows operating system installation clean, restoring it to the original configuration when you first started your system. Make a backup of important data files before proceeding with a System Recovery. See System Recovery on page 16 for further details. Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and maintenance ENWW As needed Backing up your data Use CD or DVD recording software that is installed on your computer to create (or “burn”) backup discs of important information, including personal files, e-mail messages, and Web site bookmarks. You can also move data to an external hard disk drive. Keeping the computer free of dust, dirt, and heat Keeping your computer system free of dust, dirt, and heat will prolong its life. Dust, pet hair, and other particles can build up, creating a blanket effect; as a result, components can overheat, or, in the case of the keyboard and mouse, not work smoothly and effectively. Check your system once a month for visible signs of dust and debris, and clean it about once every three months. Visit www.hp.com/support for additional cleaning instructions. Cleaning the computer vents Cleaning the computer and monitor Air vents keep the computer and monitor cool. Keep these vents clean by using a small, battery-powered vacuum cleaner. (A battery-powered vacuum cleaner eliminates the risk of electric shock.) 1. Vacuum the vents on the computer case and the monitor case. 2. Remove any debris that has accumulated in and around the computer connectors (for example, the Ethernet and USB connectors). Follow these steps to clean the computer and monitor: 1. Unplug the power to the computer and the monitor. 2. To clean the monitor screen, use a clean, dry cloth. Do not use water on the monitor screen. For more thorough cleaning, use a clean cloth and antistatic screen cleaner. 3. Use a clean, dry cloth to dust the computer case and the monitor case. NOTE: To remove sticker residue or a spill on the computer or monitor case, use isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol and a lint-free cloth. Cleaning the keyboard and mouse When cleaning the keyboard keys, use a low setting on a battery-powered vacuum cleaner, to avoid removing key caps and springs. 1. Vacuum between the keys of the keyboard and along the grooves. 2. Use a clean, dry cloth and isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol to clean buildup on the keyboard keys and along its edges. 3. Wipe the body of the mouse and the mouse cord by using cleaning wipes. If you have a roller-ball mouse, clean the ball and rollers inside: ENWW 1. Turn the mouse upside down, and rotate the ball-cover ring counterclockwise to remove the ring and release the roller ball. 2. Rinse the roller ball with soap and warm water. 3. Clean the rollers inside the mouse with a cotton swab dampened with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. 4. After the roller ball and rollers are completely dry, replace the ball and ball-cover ring. Maintenance 15 System Recovery System Recovery completely erases and reformats the hard disk drive, deleting all data files you have created, and then reinstalls the operating system, programs, and drivers. However, you must reinstall any software that was not installed on the computer at the factory. This includes software that came on media included in the computer accessory box, and any software programs you installed after purchase. NOTE: Always use the System Restore procedure before you use the System Recovery program — see Microsoft System Restore on page 12. NOTE: Some features might not be available on systems that are shipped without a version of Microsoft Windows. You must choose one of the following methods to perform a System Recovery: ● Recovery Image — Run the System Recovery from a recovery image stored on your hard disk drive. The recovery image is a file that contains a copy of the original factory-shipped software. To perform a System Recovery from a recovery image, see System Recovery from the Windows 7 Start Menu on page 16. NOTE: ● The recovery image uses a portion of the hard disk drive that cannot be used for data storage. Recovery Discs — Run the System Recovery from a set of recovery discs that you create from files stored on your hard disk drive or purchased separately. To create recovery discs, see Recovery discs on page 18. System Recovery options You should attempt a System Recovery in the following order: 1. Through the hard disk drive, from the Windows 7 Start menu. 2. Through the hard disk drive, by pressing the F11 key on the keyboard during system startup. 3.

Recovery discs You should create a set of recovery discs from the recovery image stored on your hard disk drive. This image contains the operating system and software program files that were originally installed on your computer at the factory. You can create only one set of recovery discs for your computer, and the discs can be used only with this computer. Store the recovery discs in a safe place. NOTE: Some features might not be available on systems that are shipped without a version of Microsoft Windows. 18 Chapter 3 Troubleshooting and maintenance ENWW Choosing recovery discs ● To create recovery discs, your computer must have a DVD writer, and you must use only high-quality blank DVD +R or DVD-R discs. NOTE: You cannot use CDs or DVD+RW, DVD-RW, DVD+RW DL, DVD-RW DL, DVD+R DL, or DVD-R DL discs to create recovery discs. ● Use high-quality discs to create your set of recovery discs. It is normal for discs to be rejected if they are not defect-free. You will be prompted to insert a new blank disc to try again. ● The number of discs in the recovery-disc set depends on your computer model (typically 1–3 DVD discs). The Recovery Disc Creator program tells you the specific number of blank discs needed to make the set. NOTE: The process of creating recovery discs takes some time to verify that the information written on the disc is correct. You can quit the process at any time. The next time you run the program, it resumes where it left off. Creating recovery discs To create recovery discs: 1. Close all open programs. 2. Click the Start button, click All Programs, click Recovery Manager, and then click Recovery Disc Creation. If prompted, click Yes to allow the program to continue. 3. Follow the onscreen instructions. Label each disc as you make it (for example, Recovery 1, Recovery 2). ENWW Recovery discs 19 The power to make a change Thank you for your purchase.
