    Long story short... The computer became corrupted with trojans/malware so backed up the important files to an external & tried to use Vaio care to recover. No good... So in my infinite wisdom I loaded a fresh Win7 not thinking that I never created recovery disks for drivers/sfware... Anyway, I was wondering if there is a way to access the recovery drive to return the computer to oem? I found a thread on here which heped me name it so I can see it in explorer. Do I just use the bios & choose it to boot from or is there more to it?

    Any help would be welcomed!
