    So I just got my new Acer 7741G-7017 and it looks like they no longer send a recovery disc with new laptops.

    I googled it and found this:
    How to Create a Windows 7 System Recovery Disc | eHow.com

    Seems pretty straight forward, but I was wonderin if this wil work if I upgrade my HDD later on?

    Thank you!
