recovery discs

[imported_procrastination]

I just got a call from a user who has a compaq and for some reason cannot create the recovery discs.

Aparently she used the disc creation tool, and at some point it errored out (she probably lost them)

Now her machine gives her a message: "A recovery set has already been made, you are not allowed to make more"

I am sure that this has got to be a registry setting. Anyone know how to get around this?

Its only a problem because her recovery partition has become corrupt.

thanks in advance.

I had the same problem. I called Compaq 1-800-474-6836 and they sent me a set of Recovery cd's.They FedExed them and I had them in two days.
