I have a HP Pavillion dv2910us, and I need to perform a system recovery on my laptop. I’ve tried to press F11 when the computer boots up, and nothing happens except it makes a loud beep sound and continues on its way starting up. So when that didn’t work, I came to the HP site to look up another way to possibly perform a system recovery that I didn’t know. I found that I can open the Recovery Manager from my start menu and perform the operation from there. I tried about 15 times, following the exact steps that were given to me, and even another way I found in the forum. All that happens is my computer restarts and I log in to my account and it’s the same as it was before. I really need to perform this system recovery. I’ve already moved the files I need to save to an external hard drive, and I just really need to fix this problem. What am I doing wrong, or how can I restore my laptop to factory settings in another way?

 

Additional info: My product number is FE989UA#ABA and serial is 2CE8200Y5Q.
