Re: hp recovery dvd
I agree w/you. There support is also awful. I was lucky in that I had no
prob. creating the revocery discs. But I have a friend who seems to be
having that prob. She bought the pc in Sept. After I set it up I went to
create a Recovery CD. I forgot it would take 12-13 CD's. Anyway it seemed to
have created 1 disc just fine. And that was it. Now from time to time she is
getting prompted to create recovery DVD's But when she tries the pc won't
write to the disc. She has so much trouble that I don't have time to work on
it daily. She also has a prob. w/OE not sending or recieving mail.
But that seems to be a prob. w/Norton Inet. Sec. I'll get it fixed 1 day<g>.
