Recovering the conguration settings
This method of recovery requires that you rst perform the Save to Removable Media command with the
Computer Setup (F10) Utility before Restore is needed. (See Computer Setup–Main on page 49 in the
Computer Setup—File table.)
The Save to Removable Media option creates a le named HPSETUP.TXT on an inserted USB ash media
device. This le can be edited to change the settings on Restore. An asterisk (*) marks the selected option for
a setting.
NOTE: It is recommended that you save any modied computer conguration settings to a USB ash media
device and save the device for possible future use.
To restore the conguration, insert the USB ash media device with the saved conguration and perform the
Restore from Removable Media command with the Computer Setup (F10) Utility. (See Computer Setup–Main
on page 49 in the Computer Setup—File table.)
