    I noticed when I made my OS factory default backup the HP tool said I can only make one backup.. what gives here? Is this true?.. if i need to reinstall from my backup can i then reuse the same tool to make another backup?

    You can make additional copies from the backup DVDs with any common burning tools.

    You're limited to building one copy of restore media.

    There's nothing preventing you from making further backups with other software such as Acronis True Image, Macrium Reflect Free, etc.
