    Hi,
    Is there any chance I can get copy of the recovery DVDs from any SZ160 user here? I could not order from Sony US as I am currently in Taiwan. Any good copy of recovery DVDs generated from recovery partition is fine.

    If you have paypal, I will pay the postage and blank DVDs cost to you. Thanks for your help in advance.

    Hi, I am not sure about the type SZ, but I am using a S58.
    and the recovery disc is actually inside the computer.
    I believe you can create the recovery dvd.
    If u did not format your harddrive it should be hidden somewhere in ur hard drive.
    all I have to do is to press F10 while in the sony screen and it launches the recovery.
    Maybe you can try.
    Hope it helps.

    Hi,
    I am aware of that, but the recovery image is not longer in my hard drive. Thanks for the information anyway.
