Hi,
I have a HP desktop and a Dell desktop, both have vista home premium, The HP has the recovery Manager but the Dell do not have the recovery manager or create a recovery disk. My question is ” is the recovery disk that I created from HP will work for Dell laptop?

VISTA sucks…

Just had to say that…

Go back to DOS 5.1, at least that worked….

Since most of WinBloz is DOS anyways..

Have a nice day, John

Hi
I am so fed up with window vista, since i update it to service pack 1 I have had problem with it ever since. i am only a novice when it comes to dealing with computer and plus i am a woman and english is not my first languge. Everytime I phone technition support i got through a call centre somewhere from Idia. I have notthing against them but I found it hard to communicate because of langauge barrier. Any body has the problem that you computer became freezable and had to turn it off and restart again. Tried system restore in safe mode and only solved temporaly. After you turn the computer of and then turn it on i faced the same problem. Any suggestion.

DEAN!

“Mate, Its only a recovery disc” is not an answer! But a fustration.

We all know you install the operating in this case VISTA which at the moment is because you never get the correct hardware drivers everytime in order for the computer to function efficiently.
Apart from “BACKUP” at scheduled times one would feel at least temporaroly happy knowing in an event of a CRASH (God forbid). Taadaa a “Recovery Disk” would minimise the 4 hour install operating sys, hardware update, application executables software blahblahblah.

The question should be, Can VISTA “create a recovery disk”? It is important! If not I am going back to XP Pro which can “CREATE RECOVERY DISK”.

Mate, Its only a recovery disc,

not a full windows installation disc, you wont be able to install to a fresh harddrive by it.

well, it is there, just search for recovery disc and voila.

if the options stay blank, insert a cdr of dvdr, DVDRW dont work, but they wont tell you untill after.

My problem now is how to freakin install my vista on my new much faster HDD.
The Helpdesk said just boot from the disk and everything will be clear.

Ya right, nowhere do they ask install windows just recover to preset bla-dee-bla.

I just want to re install that stupid dumb VISTA, anybody help me out?
