    Hi there!

    I had a problem with my Acer Laptop, accidentally deleted my acer recovery partition and can thus not use the D2D-Recovery anymore.

    Luckily, I created Recovery DVDs with Acer's software and have been able to reinstall Vista with all the factory settings. However, this procedure did not restore the Recovery Partition that I deleted.

    Is there anyway to re-create that partition using the Recovery DVDs so that I can use the D2D-Recovery in the future?

    Thanks

    There are tons of programs that will do this for you.
    Try TestDisk
    or Active Partition recovery

    also download the ultimate boot disk

    There is no , automated way for the public .

    And this is a general nag, about ACER and their ways of thinking .

    But if you are stubborn enough , you will find good info , by searching this forum.
