    Warranty swapped out the old HDD for a new Toshiba one. Recovery disks do not work giving error 332. Any proven solutions on rectifying this error?

    It's hard to say.
    Either recovery discs got damaged or the new hard failed.

    the recovery disks were brand new, only recovered once. the 332 error showed up after the new HDD was installed, I erased the stock OEM OS and tried to do a complete recovery.
