    Hi.
    I've a problem with Recovery partition, doesn't run.
    Then, I tried to use recovery DVD to install Vista (I've an ASUS F3Sv). I selected options to format, and when it begin, background image change to big and red ERROR with a "Cannot load imagex 0 from src WIM file", and format doesn't run.
    Now, I install XP, and I see Recovery partition in My Computer, associated in D.
    I think Recovery doesn't run because (I don't know why) "someone" changes Recovery config.
    I eliminate D letter, but recovery (and F9) don't run anyway.
    Have I to change Recovery partition? Now, in Computer Administration (or Manager, I don't know how is in English) I see:
    RECOVERY - Partition - Basic - FAT32 - Correct - 6,82Gb - 2,09Gb - 30% - No - 0%
    VistaOS (C :) - Partition - Basic - NTFS - Correct (System) - 142,21Gb - 138,86Gb - 97% - No - 0%

    Have I to change Recovery partition to "active", for example? How I can hide this recovery?

    Please, help.
    Thanks.
