Hi Dean,

I live in Trinidad and Tobago, I have tried calling the toll free number but to no avail.

To be quite honest the recovery dvd was created and is not working. The recovery on the hard drive is giving a code purple. The system hard drive failed when the machine was on warranty and was replaced by a hp partner, however that image is not working now. My guess is that the image on the recovery partition was not the correct image hence the reason for the code purple and the failed recovery.

Hello cliveld:

         Don't worry as long as you have recovery disk from previous drive. Your ok. I going to check your computers web page. You can recover your computer by that disk. Long process though. I get back to you as soon as I can. Just want to reveiw your computers pages first. Besides they are going to close temporary.

Hi

I want to believe that the recovery image on the HDD, that was replaced under warranty which I created the recovery discs from is the wrong image. I fail to accept that the correct disc will give me an error " the recvoery disc you are trying to use is not for this model computer". For this reason I am certain the wrong image existed on the new drive.

Please let me know if you think I am wrong about my assumption.

I will also like to state that I tried a copy of Windows 7 Enterprise Edition on the machine and it works well. Hence the wrong image was on the drive originally when the drive was replaced.

     I am now using Sarfri Internet Browser and Dogpile.com search engine to see if I can excess foreign HP websites.

      On the web page above jump down to recovery using disks. Ok. Your set you made is supose to work. Did you get a hold of technical support by phone in your country yet?  Options are given for failure first time. Other methods are listed as well. Thank goodness you still have the orginal recovery disks you made. My browsers freeze up trying to open up your computers information sheets.
