    Ok I have a question. My friend has the same ASUS laptop as I do. He accidentally reformatted his hard drive with the recovery tool while trying to fix someones hard drive. And is now asking for my help.

    I was wondering if it would be possible to backup my recovery partition and have him install it on his not formatted hard drive and boot into it.

    Edit: We both have the ASUS G-60 JX.

    Yea, I use Macrium reflect free to do that, but there are many others. Install reflect, backup your HDD to a usb and make a recovery disk. Then restore it to his laptop and run asus recovery on boot.
