    I have an Asus N56VZ-RH71 and I would like to know if the Drivers & Utilities that are residing on the hard disk recovery partition are exactly the same as the ones with the Asus supplied Drivers & Utilities disk that comes with the notebook?

    In other words, If I were to recover the notebook back to the day one factory fresh setup via the recovery partition function would it be EXACTLY the same as if I were to cleanly install Windows 8 via an ISO and then load all of the Drivers & Utilities via the supplied Asus disc that came in the box? :confused:


    Thanks!

    That is the idea, anyway. :) Either way it's suppose to be the same image; it's either copied to optical media, or to the drive and then the drive is partitioned (to keep it safe from end-user damage/corruption).
