    I have this recovery DVD.
    Whats the differences in this and the HP Recovery DVDs I made?

    Will this return my computer to the factory settings it came with when I first bought it?

    Will it do the same, if I install a new hard drive?

    Mad confused here! Could use the guidance of the HP gods!

    There's no difference between the Windows Media Center 2005 recovery DVDs that you make and the ones that HP provide.

    As for the rest of the questions: yes, and yes.
