Re: Complete PC Restore- HOW??

Hi Brink, thanks for a response.

I am trying to restore to my laptop after a hard drive failure which
required a new hardrive. From what ive read on the other responses you cant
get into the repair mode if you have an OEM recovery disk ? It appears you
can only do a complete pc recovery using a windows installation disc ?

Hopefully you can do it somehow as there will be 'days' required to reload
all software.
