    Hi,
    I have noticed that the EISA configuration partition is 100% Free(as per attachment). I thought it was a recovery partition and if I ever get in to trouble I could recover the system to original state. But now I am concerned as it is empty and do I still have that recovery utility. I have created a recovery disc(neosmart) but I prefer built-in system recovery. Could someone please clear the doubts and advise what action should I take to protect the ability to recovery.
    Hidden Partition: Healthy (EISA Conf)-7.81GB Free of 7.81GB
    healthy(System,Boot,Page File..)-28GB Free of 51GB
    Healthy(Primary Partition) -35GB Free of 52GB
    In my Acer Aspire 5610z.
    Sorry, I couldn't upload the attachment.

    I have found the answer to my query by googling, with the help of this program "Macrium Reflect". Thanks for reading my post.
