Better hope you don’t have to use the back up disks HP sent. I had the same problem. Wouldn’t verify the disks. Called HP and they didn’t say anything. Just shipped me a free DVD. A week or so later I got the “blue screen of death”. No problem, I just popped the the back-up DVD and away it went. Everything looked normal until the thing rebooted. It didn’t have hardly any programs in it. i.e. Media Player, Control Panel, no hard drive (only showing about 25gb out of 120), etc. Better hope you don’t have to use the thing. Nothing but problems. As this was a new compaq laptop, less than a month old, I told them to come get the blooming thing and shove it. They sent it to a place in Tennessee and I got it back about 4 days later. Worked perfectly, even including making a back-up DVD disk. Go figure!!

Yeah, sure …
He shouldn’t be forced to call HP, and it doesn’t matter what backup it was, complete or not. That’s the point.

If he called HP and they gladly shipped him a free recovery CD … then … the problem is … what, exactly?

Want more whine with that cheese?

Can you elaborate with some details? By restore CD do you mean complete pc backup?

When I explained the error, I was then told the problem was due to a copyright conflict in Vista that prevented the copy from being created. Is this freakin’ insane or what?... why did Microsoft allow something like this get out in the first place?"http://chris.pirillo.com/2007/06/24/copyright-insanity/Compare that with a Macintosh, which does come with disks – or GNU/Linux, offering you all the disks you want, all the time, for no cost. 66.

las ventas de Vista han sido bajas por el retraso de M$ en lanzarlo, pero mi opinión es diferente. Pueden buscar en Internet. Vista es tan hackeable como XP. Consume demasiada memoria, en PCs originalespone limitantes ridículas de copyright que impiden la creación de discos de recuperación, el Control de Cuentas de Usuario (UAC) es un dolor de cabeza (Si a uno que sabe de computadoras le es molesto, imaginen cómo lo será para alguien que se alarma al ver que Word le pregunta si desea guardar el documento), en fin
