Hi
you have to search on another site, like this
http://www.computersurgeons.com/p-13194-recovery-kit-5092-5956-for-hp-model-number-m7658n.aspx
but with the risk it entails
no guarantee it will work

Locating the recovery disk set for a computer that old is not likely. I looked at Computer Surgeons - the go to people for what you want.
http://www.computersurgeons.com/
which is the most likely place to find that, they did not locate any. You might try using a slightly different model number to find something close, but good luck. There may be other sites but it will be a crapshoot to find what would work. It would probably be a better fit to locate a generic Windows XP media center install disk set and then find the drivers. BTW: Vista might be a thought, too. Maybe even Windows 7 media center would work on that old hardware.
I see @Prométhée found something that might work. I did not do as well as he, nor did I see his reply until now. Sorry

hi
@TheOldMan my first search, was a failure with this site, I changed the name of the computer, to find, at the beginning I had simply tried Pavilion Media Center TV m7658n
It may be easier to find drivers, under vista, but frankly, I do not recommend
at the time I had an hp under vista, the most horrible of systems, fortunately a windows 7 offer arrived quickly, nothing to do!
But it may be more complicated to find drivers!
Problem is that there you have to buy a license, and if it does not pass, too bad, unless you do a test before, it passes, buy the license!
