    I have just done a complete recovery of an SZ79GN using the Recovery Discs (2 DVDs) and was surprised that the recovery only used disc 1 and didn't call for disc 2.

    Is this usual, or is my PC likely to now be missing something because disc 2 wasn't used?

    Any help or comment would be appreciated :)

    While I have not done it on my SZ, prior experience with Sony recovery media is that the second disc is for "Driver and Application" recovery on an individual basis.
