under Backup and Restore. Clicking on the "Recover system settings or your computer" prompt<br />

Run Diagnostics<br />

<strong>HP</strong> computers have an excellent diagnostic tool users can access. When turning <strong>HP</strong> netbooks or<br />

laptops on, users should press F12 as soon as the <strong>HP</strong> logo appears. When the menu appears, they<br />

then select Diagnostics. This program examines the hardware to see if any problems exist. In<br />

addition, the diagnostics tool offers several other tests users can choose to diagnose computer<br />

problems. It is possible to fix issues with blue screens, Bluetooth connectivity, performance,<br />

Internet connectivity, and more.<br />

View Events<br />

The Event Viewer, or Event Log, alerts users to problems with software and hardware. Users<br />

access the Event Viewer by choosing Administrative <strong>To</strong>ols from System and Security in the<br />

Control Panel. After opening the logs, they can scroll through the different options to see<br />

warnings and other file or system issues. Important events have yellow signs with exclamation<br />

points or red circles with an "X" in the middle.<br />

Clearing Cache and History<br />

Clearing the cache and history sometimes solves issues occurring with software and Internet<br />

browsers. <strong>To</strong> clear the cache on Internet browsers, users should open the Control Panel and<br />

choose Network and Internet from the menu. After clicking Internet Options, they then select<br />

Delete under the Browsing History prompt.<br />

Various programs help users clean up cache and temporary files created by other programs.<br />

Many of these programs are free and eliminate a lot of software problems. Registry cleaning<br />

programs can also detect and repair registry issues. If the issue still persists you can call on our<br />

<strong>HP</strong> Laptop Customer Support Phone Number and get help from our technical experts. Our<br />

toll-free number is 1-877-213-5868, which connects our customers with our experts.
