    no i didnt have that. all i reformatted was the c drive only, the d drive (rec partition) was not altered in any way. the problem i have is that all the recovery options have disappeared from both windows and boot menu.

    Your just gonna have to wait for the programs discs to come through the post and install of that.

    Im surprised they didnt supply the program discs with your order as when i had my hardrive fail recently i had all the programs on disc from the manufacturer already to reload on to the new drive.
