OK. 'G6' was enough to tell me you press F11 on boot to access the recovery Partition. This gives you full restore to Factory Settings, disadvantage is you lose all your data...
If this fails you may have to order Recovery Disks from HP or try to download Windows 8 Installation. Is your laptop running OK at the moment?
Backup to DVDs notoriously unreliable. Better to create a System Image on a USB Flash Drive and put it away somewhere safe. You'll also need a bootable Repair Disk, but it's less than 250Mb so a CD will be fine.

Create Recovery
1. Repair Disk
2. System Image
This can be achieved by typing 'Recovery' at your Start Screen, and from Settings choose Windows 7 File Recovery for either a Repair Disk or System Image
 
Another possibility is to create your own Recovery Partition on your Hard Drive using Disk Management. Simply reduce the size of your 'C' Drive by around 100Gb and create a new partition with the Unallocated Space. Then create a System Image as above and write it to your new Partition. You'd still need a Repair Disk to restore to our System Image.
Update your System Image on a regular basis...

i wasted 4 discs for recovery set i dont have no more for thz for thz i have to go to the market to get more........and second i was gone to repair startup settings and i cant make it it show and text file as a arroe that It cant repairs the startup settings i m following thz step for running in a sefe mode and try again to make a set od recovery.. . . . .or i think i have delete some files to creat again new set for backup
 

Did you create it using Disk Manager? Does it have a Drive Letter?

A Repair Disk is what you need to boot your PC if normal boot fails, you choose Boot Priority CD/DVD ROM and then your machine boots from the disk and gives you access to Troubleshooting and Advance Options which will include Recovery from a System Image...

i think i should let thz recovery etc Program and reset to the factory state or system recovery i m confused . . . .. i think factory state is better thz should formats the recovery partition as well . ... . whats ur opinion man . . . Give a quick answer m w8ing for u
 


Hmmm. If the Machine came with a Recovery Partition you won't be able to access it! Not in the 'normal' way. You should be able to restore your machine back to factory state by selecting an F key at boot, what is your model number? (So I can find the Manual)
 
OK. 'G6' was enough to tell me you press F11 on boot to access the recovery Partition. This gives you full restore to Factory Settings, disadvantage is you lose all your data...

My second question Is original [factory installed BIOS] are goood OR lattest one . . . . i previously installed F.25 for G6 and stay working with me well for 3 moths and now when i read that Beta verions are not goood so i roll back my BIOS to Deafult . . . is what i did well r again install F.25 . . my Deafult BIOS is F.10 :)
 

Think your latest BIOS is F.26 which improves Memory control (good) and fixes a fault in Sleep mode... I would go for it. No mention of Beta...
