    I did a clean install of the last Vista RC to try it out, thinking that if I didn't like it I'd just do a restore.

    I've been using it for awhile, but it has some issues with some software so I wanted to go back...blah, blah, blah.

    The F11 key will not initiate the sytem restore partition!! F10 and Esc are just fine though. I didn't create the back-up discs because I had no intention of deleting the partion. I know, bad idea, I just realized that today as I've been scouring these forums.

    Any ideas? I can't to a clean XP install because of the SATA issue, and I can't slipstream the SATA's because I don't have access to the original C:\Swsetup file.

    Am I stuck with ordering discs from HP, or am I missing something.

    Thanks!
