It really depends on what your cd/dvd drive needs - or maybe the newer ones can use the + or - dvds.

just pop one in and try to burn your restore disks - it will tell you if it isn't the right type. It will probably tell you what type it needs..

It might be in your manual or the specs section of your new computer info.
Or even on the HP website under the product/serial/model #.


You should register it on the HP site too and bookmark that page of later, it just handy to have it.
