    Hi Guys, This is my first thread on this site so im hoping that at least one of you can help me. I have just purchased a sony vaio Z11WN/B laptop and i burnt the recovery disks before downgrading to xp. Once i remembered that xp could only use 3/4gb of my ram i decided to upgrade back to the original vista installation. Wen i tried doing so, my recovery disks wouldnt get me past the windows installation. I think they must have burnt badly. Anyway, i have no way of getting back to vista as i have also deleted the recovery paritition, thinking i didnt need it anymore..... DOH! I have contacted sony however they want me to pay £35 to order the recovery disks. Could someone please upload the recovery disks to a website so that i can download them? Or point me in the right direction on where to download it, if anywhere! I think the files might be too big to email.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Ryan
