    Recently I bought second hand VGN-TX17GP model. Because the guy who sold the laptop didn't reinstalled OS, decided to reinstall Windows from recovery partition. Recovery software started & just after minutes stops responding doing "System Recovery: Recover the selected driver", it looks like. The 26% pertenge of overall job done & comes error message.

    Checked for bad sector with HDD Regenerator, it found, but removed them & second scan didn't showed any. I thought this would help.
    What should I do? Delete all partition & to make my own recovery partition after Windows reinstall? Or reinstall Windows & then upgrade that hidden partition with my one recovery image?

    Thanks for any advice
