    Hey guys,

    How many disks (dvd?) do I need to make the recovery disks for my P172X FX? Im going to do a clean install of vista. What disk type do I need?


    I looked through the first 10 pages or so of the threads and couldnt find the answer, and the search didnt help much either.

    Much obliged.

    You just need one disk. You can make one driver/app backup disk, and you can make one dvd image too, they are both the same thing.
