    So back when I got my T61p, I never made the Rescue and Recovery Discs, I know, bad mziol. But, later on I installed vista/xp because I needed xp for work. So now the Thinkvantage button does nothing when I press it but show options such as go to BIOS etc. The thing is, the recovery partition was never touched (in the disc manager it still shows up as being the same size and everything). Is there any way to re-enable the button so I can simply recover everything to factory state without ordering the Rescue and Recovery cd's (Also if anyone knows the link to the order page I would appreciate it)?
