Trying to recover my 2003 HP Pavilion 523n
[Serial Number removed for privacy]
- System#:9851A
During boot it requests a bootable disk. Is it possible to obtain that disk from here?
Kind regards,
Daryl Claybrooks

Hi, Daryl:
You can try to order a set from HP by following the info at the link below. Don't get your hopes up because that is a pretty old PC, and HP probably doesn't have them anymore. But you have nothing to lose by trying.
If HP doesn't have them, the good news is you can order a set from this vendor for $27 + shipping.

Greetings Paul,
Thanks for the information. The desktop I have is rather old and because of its age HP doesn't have the recovery disks but your additional information was spot on. Thanks again.
Kind regards,
Daryl
