My girlfriend was trying to format her hp dv6575us laptop to its original settings but she wasnt able to do it, now, Im trying to do it and discovered she deleted the recovery partition. I cant create the recovery discs because it says: "the recovery partition could not be found ..."
Im looking to create this partition and be able to create the recovery discs needed. Im following the procedure of this post http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=120228 and the first thing it says is: BURN RECOVERY DISCS!!!. Plz help us she need her laptop working to studythanks in advance!

If you have deleted the recovery partition and not burnt the DVD/CD's then not much you can do in terms of doing a recovery using the HP recovery system. The best you can do at this point would be to find a Vista DVD and use that to install the OS following the clean Vista install guide. The only other options if you want to put the system back to factory state would be to order the restore DVD's from HP, this is ofcourse going to take a while for them to ship. May be if you can find someone else with the same notebook as your girlfriend, you could use their restore DVD's to recover your system, but you would still have to get the restore DVD since HP only allows you one chane to burn them.

What he said.
If you can't burn the recovery discs, you can't do any more damage than has been done (which is not much). Your best bet is to forget about the recovery discs and do the clean install.
