It's important to do F10 at boot up (before Windows loads)...
1. Reboot, and repeatedly press F10 at the HP logo until the recovery screen appears.
2. When the recovery screen appears, press "Next" and then "Yes" to perform a non-destructive recovery (all data saved). After the recovery is finished, the laptop will reboot.
Or to perform a destructive recovery, (***This will erase all your unsaved data!***)
Click "Advanced" and then "Yes".
After the recovery is finished, the laptop will reboot.
Or
Reboot, and repeatedly press F11. Follow on screen prompts.
Or
Click Start>All Programs>Recovery Manager>Recovery Manager.
Click continue if prompted.
Click System recovery.
When the PC restarts, select the System recovery option and click Next.
If prompted to use the Microsoft System Restore program, click No, then Next.
If you want to backup your personal files and settings, select Back up your files first (recommended) option, then click Next.
Follow the on-screen instructions.
When prompted to Recover without backing up your files, STOP before clicking Next.
This is the final opportunity to change your mind about recovering the PC and deleting all the files and programs.
Once you click Next, the restore process cannot be stopped.
The PC immediately begins formatting.

EDIT: It would appear that you don't have a recovery partition. Your only option is to buy a set of recovery disks from HP, or buy a Windows installation disk.
