    I use this HP pavilion dv2000 laptop for more than 2year but I don't have recovery cd and I never thought to write. But recently my laptop affect with virus which is not allowing to login into window xp, as soon as I login it get logs of immediately and i decided to reinstall xp,So while booting the computer I pressed to F11 to load HP recovery option and it loads but after few point no display on the screen. So, I don't know what to do. If I get some recovery CD/software so that I can download and write in it and load in my affected computer.Or Can you please suggest how do I load windowsxp freshly in my laptop. I don't have any important data's in my laptop, so I can even do format HDD is necessary.

    Hello KLF

    Thanks for great solution. I am exactly in the same situation. But one issue was, to create a BartPE, it required a windowsXP installation CD, I dont have any installation CD. My HP laptop came with pre installed XP. What shall I do? Please help me.

    Thanks.

    you can also try downloading a bootable antivirus, booting and cleaning your computer, and then make recovery discs and reinstall

    for future reference, making recovery discs should be the FIRST thing you do when you get a new laptop
