Recovery CD

[usakjw]

I am working on a Compag (urgh) Presario S3200NX. I need to format the harddrive. I tried creating the recovery CD set with-in windows. I got an error. I have the orginal set except that I am missing the third CD. I called HP and they want $25 for a set. He said that it is not possible to down load the cd set. Does anybody know of a third party where I can download them.

I am not sure of the circumstances that require you to format the hard disk, but you may wish to consider the purchase of Norton Ghost 10.0 (

to make an image of the drive. After doing so, you can then format the drive and then restore the image.

I have norton ghost. I have corrupted system files so that would not do me any good.
