Hi guys, i see some of u go problems using the F11 key. Well, not every HP comp or notebook can be restored by pressing F11. Example, mine is an Elitebook6930p and here must be used F8. you can find wich is the right key for your comp easly by consulting System and Maintenance => Backup and Restore. There you have: Backup fies or your entire computer & Restore files and your entire computer. Click: Restore computer it will tell you the Key you should use when your computer starts up! Thums up!
