    You can install THIS and make a recovery set if you still want to. Or are you looking for the Driver & Application DVD?

    You shouldn't need the DVDs to recover from the partition. I believe it's explained how to do it in the user's manual, probably the only thing of value in that worthless manual.

    If you've already done a clean install, then there's no need to use the recovery partition. There's a guide on the asus software to help you decide what you want to install.
