Thank you for posting on HP Forums,

The Riddle_Decipher is at your service.

As I Understand the recovery USB kit isn't working though it was recently purchased,

No worries as I'd love to help, however, I need a few more details to provide an accurate solution:

Have you attempted to restart the process after turning off the Wifi and removing all external devices?

If you haven't done the above, To resolve this issue, perform the following:

Before performing a system recovery, please ensure the wireless device is turned on by pressing the wireless button on the notebook PC. The wireless LED should be lit.

If a system recovery was performed with wireless off, please perform the following:

1. Press the wireless button to turn on the wireless switch.

2. Reboot the notebook PC.

3. Press F11 to boot from the Recovery Manager.

4. Click Next when Welcome to Recovery Manager displays.

5. Select No and then click Next when Microsoft System Restore displays.

6. Click Yes and then click Next when System Recovery displays.

7. Select the appropriate item (backup file or not) and then click Next when Recovery your computer to original factory condition displays.

8. Allow the system recovery to complete.

If the issue persists, please Contact HP phone support and get yourself a replacement USB kit as it could be a corrupt kit,
After performing a hardware test on the Hard drive to ensure this isn't a hardware malfunction within your computer: Click here to know How.

Thank you for the update,

I appreciate your time and efforts,

I understand this could be frustrating, however, there's nothing that can't be fixed and my only aim is to help you out (I'm doing everything I can within my support boundaries).

Also, considering you've purchased the recovery USB kit from HP recently, You do not have to pay for a replacement kit (considering this one isn't working).

Please give them a call and they'll help you with the replacement,

We are here only to help you out, so please run the test by using the F2 during a restart and Contact HP with the results.

Everything should be sorted out by the end of the call.
