    OK I went into Vaio Recovery Center and I made the recovery disks on 2 DVD's now what? I saw somewhere I need to copy c:windows/sonysys/vaiorecovery ? What is that and I have to do that on top of doing the recovery disks? If I do how and where do I copy it?

    My P1 recovery disk should be here Monday to take all the bloat out :) so I want to be allllll ready.

    Thanks guys,

    PS
    I love this site you guys are the best!!!!!!

    Hi
    Just to say I will be keeping an eye on this thread as I have been unsuccessful trying to make recovery disks on my TZ as I cannot get passed the 7GB warning even though I have prepared the 2 DVD's - Sony have not responded after 4 days so frustrated but hopefully when I have the disks copied your info above will assist
    Thanks

    there you go you are done.you don't have to copy any file.just try your recovery disk by inserting your cd room.

    oh shoot I didn't even think to try the disk I made it put it away and now just did the recovery disk from P1. Is there anything I should add from the sony recovery (if it works) that P1 didn't include?
