Setting Up the Computer
Making Recovery CDs
In the unlikely event that there is damage to the
hard disk drive, or you have to replace it, you must
use recovery CDs that you create to reinstall the
operating system and software. Make the recovery
CDs for your PC by using the Compaq Recovery
CD Creator now, before a need occurs. Refer
to “Using Compaq Recovery CD Creator”
on page 6–7. This program assembles the
necessary files and writes the information onto
CDs.
Working in Comfort
After assembling your computer, but before you
begin using it, make sure the computer and your
work area are properly set up to maintain your

Comfort Guide in the Help and Support Center

1. Double-click the Help and Support Center
