| | Re: Recovery Partition in Vista 64 bit Home The recovery partition does not contain a disk image of the factory installation. It contains the programs and data to recreate the factory image and will provide you with some options concerning bloatware etc as it builds a new image. You need to follow the instructions that came with the computer on how to use the recovery partition on your computer to restore your laptop.
