Hi,

Thanks for the quick replies.

Unfortunately no recovery partition.

Will an XP O/S Disk allow me to install from the Packard Bell Master CDs, they don't require a Windows XP Disk?

I have a Windows XP Disk for another computer of mine which is just a single CD. The packard bell recovery media is 4 CDs worth, could I get away with formatting the hard drive and installing Win XP fresh from the Win XP CD?

Thanks
