From: Carey Frisch [MVP] on 9 Jan 2006 15:58 HP Pavilions that ship with Microsoft Windows XP do not come with Recovery CDs. Instead, they use a hidden space (partition) on the hard drive to store the recovery information. Read the following article thoroughly, then follow the steps outlined to perform a "non-destructive" recovery operation. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&cc=us&docname=bph07145&product=71013&dlc=en&lang=en If a "non-destructive" recovery will not work, then you'll have to resort to a "destructive recovery" which will reformat the drive, thus wiping it clean of all files before Windows XP is reinstalled.
