HDD Failure resulted in a new HDD. Now I need the recovery disk. The laptop was running Vista & had a recovery folder only. Lost drive=lost recovery.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Vista is not listed as an OS - recovery disk that is available from HP.  Any other suggestions?  My hard drive crashed and I did not receive a disk; the recovery info was on the hard drive.
