Hello;


Sorry, but I don't have very good news for you ...

 

They are correct.  HP no longer stocks Recovery Media for the Vista-era PCs.

 

You said the hard drive had been "deleted" -- but what exactly did you do?

 

Asking because if all you did was reformat the drive, it might be possible to restore it -- but you would need a working PC on which to install recovery software, and an USB-to-hard-drive adapter to connect your drive to that PC.


We can proceed when you provide the information.

Thanks
