    Your PC should have come with the ability to either create Recovery disks, or to use a Recovery Partition to reinstall the system to ex-factory state. Please consult your manuals for instructions.
    If for some reason neither option is available to you, contact HP to request a set of Recovery Disks from them - they are normally available a a reasonable cost.
