4 Removal and replacement procedures  
Preliminary replacement requirements  
Tools required  
You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures:  
Flat-bladed screwdriver  
Phillips P0 and P1 screwdrivers  
Torx T8 screwdriver  
Service considerations  
The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during  
disassembly and assembly procedures.  
NOTE: As you remove each subassembly from the computer, place the subassembly (and all  
accompanying screws) away from the work area to prevent damage.  
Plastic parts  
CAUTION: Using excessive force during disassembly and reassembly can damage plastic parts.  
Use care when handling the plastic parts. Apply pressure only at the points designated in the  
maintenance instructions.  
38 Chapter 4 Removal and replacement procedures  
               
Cables and connectors  
CAUTION: When servicing the computer, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations  
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.”  
Preliminary replacement requirements 39  
       
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 are 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.  
Preliminary replacement requirements 41  
     
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  
Electrostatic voltage levels and protective materials  
The following table lists the shielding protection provided by antistatic bags and floor mats.

8 Backup and recovery  
Backup and recovery in Windows Vista  
Overview  
To protect your information, use the Backup and Restore Center to back up individual files and  
folders, back up your entire hard drive (select models only), or create system restore points. In case  
of system failure, you can use the backup files to restore the contents of your computer.  
The Backup and Restore Center provides the following options:  
Backing up individual files and folders  
Backing up the entire hard drive (select models only)  
Scheduling automatic backups (select models only)  
Creating system restore points  
Recovering individual files  
Restoring the computer to a previous state  
Recovering information using recovery tools  
NOTE: For detailed instructions, perform a search for these topics in Help and Support.  
NOTE: In case of system instability, HP recommends that you print the recovery procedures and  
save them for later use.  
Backing up your information  
Recovery after a system failure is as complete as your most current backup. You should create your  
initial backup immediately after software setup. As you add new software and data files, you should  
continue to back up your system on a regular basis to maintain a reasonably current backup.  
You can back up your information to an optional external hard drive, a network drive, or discs.  
Note the following when backing up:  
Store personal files in the Documents folder, and back it up regularly.  
Back up templates that are stored in their associated programs.  
Save customized settings that appear 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.  
138 Chapter 8 Backup and recovery  
           
To create a screen shot:  
1. Display the screen you want to save.  
2. Copy the screen image:  
To copy only the active window, press alt+fn+prt sc.  
To copy the entire screen, press fn+prt sc.  
3. Open a word-processing document, and then select Edit > Paste.  
The screen image is added to the document.  
4. Save the document.  
When backing up to discs, use any of the following types of discs (purchased separately): CD-R,  
CD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+R DL, DVD-R, DVD-R DL, or DVD±RW. The discs you use will depend  
on the type of optical drive installed in your computer.  
NOTE: DVDs and DVDs with double-layer (DL) support store more information than CDs, so  
using them for backup reduces the number of recovery discs required.  
When backing up to discs, number each disc before inserting it into the optical drive of the  
computer.  
To create a backup using Backup and Restore Center, follow these steps:  
NOTE: Be sure that the computer is connected to AC power before you start the backup process.  
NOTE: The backup process may take over an hour, depending on file size and the speed of the  
computer.  
1. Select Start > All Programs > Maintenance > Backup and Restore Center.  
2. Follow the on-screen instructions to back up your entire computer (select models only) or your  
files.  
NOTE: Windows® includes the User Account Control feature to improve the security of your  
computer. You may be prompted for your permission or password for tasks such as installing  
software, running utilities, or changing Windows settings. Refer to Help and Support for more  
information.  
Performing a recovery  
In case of system failure or instability, the computer provides the following tools to recover your files:  
Windows recovery tools: You can use the Backup and Restore Center to recover information  
you have previously backed up. You can also use Windows Startup Repair to fix problems that  
might prevent Windows from starting correctly.  
f11 recovery tools: You can use the f11 recovery tools to recover your original hard drive image.  
The image includes the Windows operating system and software programs installed at the  
factory.  
Backup and recovery in Windows Vista 139  
     
NOTE: If you are unable to boot (start up) your computer, you must purchase a Windows Vista  
operating system DVD to reboot the computer and repair the operating system. For additional  
information, refer to the “Using a Windows Vista operating system DVD (purchased separately)”  
section in this guide.  
Using the Windows recovery tools  
To recover information you previously backed up, follow these steps:  
1. Click Start > All Programs > Maintenance > Backup and Restore Center.  
2. Follow the on-screen instructions to recover your entire computer (select models only) or your  
files.  
NOTE: Windows includes the User Account Control feature to improve the security of your  
computer. You may be prompted for your permission or password for tasks such as installing  
software, running utilities, or changing Windows settings. Refer to Help and Support for more  
information.  
To recover your information using Startup Repair, follow these steps:  
CAUTION: Using Startup Repair completely erases hard drive contents and reformats the hard  
drive. All files you have created and any software installed on the computer are permanently  
removed. When reformatting is complete, the recovery process restores the operating system, as well  
as the drivers, software, and utilities from the backup used for recovery.  
1. If possible, back up all personal files.  
2. If possible, check for the presence of the Windows partition and the HP Recovery partition. To  
find the partitions, select Start > Computer.  
NOTE: If the Windows partition and the HP Recovery partition have been deleted, you must  
recover your operating system and programs using the Windows Vista operating system DVD  
and the Driver Recovery disc (both purchased separately). For additional information, refer to  
the “Using a Windows Vista operating system DVD (purchased separately)” section in this guide.  
3. Restart the computer, and then press f8 before the Windows operating system loads.  
4. Select Repair your computer.  
5. Follow the on-screen instructions.  
NOTE: For additional information on recovering information using the Windows tools, perform a  
search for these topics in Help and Support.  
Using f11  
CAUTION: Using f11 completely erases hard drive contents and reformats the hard drive. All files  
you have created and any software installed on the computer are permanently removed. The f11  
recovery tool reinstalls the operating system and HP programs and drivers that were installed at the  
factory. Software not installed at the factory must be reinstalled.  
140 Chapter 8 Backup and recovery  
     
To recover the original hard drive image using f11, follow these steps:  
1. If possible, back up all personal files.  
2. If possible, check for the presence of the HP Recovery partition. To find the partition, select  
Start > Computer.  
NOTE: If the HP Recovery partition has been deleted, you must recover your operating system  
and programs using the Windows Vista operating system DVD and the Driver Recovery disc  
(both purchased separately). For additional information, refer to the “Using a Windows Vista  
operating system DVD (purchased separately)” section in this guide.  
3. Turn on or restart the computer, and then press esc while the “Press the ESC key for Startup  
Menu” message is displayed at the bottom of the screen.  
4. Press f11 while the “Press <F11> for recovery” message is displayed on the screen.  
5. Follow the on-screen instructions.  
Using a Windows Vista operating system DVD (purchased separately)  
If you are unable to boot (start up) your computer, you must purchase a Windows Vista operating  
system DVD to reboot the computer and repair the operating system. Make sure that your most  
recent backup (stored on discs or on an external drive) is easily accessible. To order a Windows Vista  
operating system DVD, go to http://www.hp.com/support, select your country or region, and follow the  
on-screen instructions. You can also order the DVD by calling technical support. For contact  
information, refer to the Worldwide Telephone Numbers booklet included with the computer.  
CAUTION: Using a Windows Vista operating system DVD completely erases hard drive contents  
and reformats the hard drive. All files you have created and any software installed on the computer  
are permanently removed. When reformatting is complete, the recovery process helps you restore the  
operating system, as well as drivers, software, and utilities.  
To initiate recovery using a Windows Vista operating system DVD, follow these steps:  
NOTE: This process takes several minutes.  
1. If possible, back up all personal files.  
2. Restart the computer, and then insert the Windows Vista operating system DVD into the optical  
drive before the Windows operating system loads.  
3. When prompted, press any keyboard key.  
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.  
5. Click Next.  
6. Select Repair your computer.  
7. Follow the on-screen instructions.

NOTE: When you back up all files and folders, this does not include the operating system or  
programs.  
NOTE: This process may take over an hour, depending on your computer speed and the amount of

points. This allows you to save 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.  
Backup and Recovery in Windows XP 143  
           
NOTE: The first system recovery point, a snapshot of the entire image, is automatically created the  
first time you perform a backup. Subsequent recovery points make copies of changes made after that  
time.  
HP recommends that you create recovery points at the following times:  
Before you add or extensively modify software or hardware  
Periodically, whenever the system is performing optimally
