    When I bought my desktop it came with recovery CDs, drivers and all the software that came with it. My p7807 didnt come with any cd's at all. Is this normal??? Did they forget to pack in the cd's?? or does it somehow recover by itself when needed. HELP

    It has a recovery partition, to use it just find gateway recovery in the start menu. You can also burn a OS and drivers disc with that utility.
