    I haven't really used my laptop in a while, but it happens that I've deleted the recovery partition when I installed linux. I thought I'd backed it up but that's got lost in the mists of time somehow. While I still have the install disc that will only get me to a clean slate Vista install. I'd like to go back to the factory image just for old times sake.

    Would anyone be able to upload an image of their recovery partition? I can PM a picture of my service tag and windows license sticker if people would like verification that I'm licensed for the software.

    For reference, I was running Vista 64 bit with the HD3670 version of the 1640.

    Thanks,

    Funky
