Recovering my recovery partition

[Katie_Boundary]

To make a long story short, the contents of the "HP_RECOVERY" partition are backed up to an external hard drive, and the laptop's own hard drive had to be wiped after being accidentally converted from a basic disk to a dynamic disk and back. Now, in order to get everything back to normal, I need to re-create the recovery partition. Using a Linux LiveUSB stick, I was able to successfully create an NTFS partition of approximately the correct size, labeled "HP_RECOVERY", and dump the original partition's contents back into it. The "press f11 to run automated system recovery" option is now back on the startup menu. Unfortunately, it doesn't work right, and I get that 3F0 error about being unable to find an operating system. This happens regardless of whether the partition is set to bootable or not. How do I fix?

Sorry, but backing off, and then later. attempting to restore a Recovery partition does not work. 

Even if the size was exact, instead of approximate, it still would not work as the partition has to be the same physical location on the drive as it was originally.

The only real way to restore a working Recovery partition is to use something known as HP Recovery Media -- and that works because it erases the ENTIRE drive, recreating the original partitions, in the same sizes and locations as they were originally.

You can not download that media; instead, you have to order it from HP and pay for it.

Really? What about cloud recovery? Does that produce different results?
