The things to be aware of when you do the install are that the wireless and wired network devices need drivers to work. ![]() Registered solely for the purpose of resolving this problem for people having done this myself this weekend!įirst of all, before trying this make sure you backup (rule 1 of I.T.)!!!i HP provide a utility to create restore media - you need 5 DVDs and about 2 hours but gives you peace of mind you can restore to how you were if needed.
