I am writing to request your help with a severe problem with my Packard Bell desktop PC. I purchased the IMEDIA 1507 about 6 years ago with an OEM copy of Microsoft XP home (SP2). At the time and with prompting from the PC when first switched on, I made a Recovery DVD. I have a new Windows 7 PC but wished to give the Packard Bell to a family member. I had been having problems with the Packard Bell and decided to do a restore to original settings using the Packard Bell Recovery DVD made initially. I placed the Recovery DVD in the DVD reader and initiated a normal reinstall of the system. The system started setting itself up and did a quick format of the C: drive.
However so far through the process, an error occurred as follows:

An error has been detected during image installation.

Image name : XPSP201H.GHO
Part name : WSA000AD.01
Destination : 1:1
WSE Path : Q:\PARTS\WSE001AD.XX
Source drive : Q


Current folder :

Volume in drive Q is RECOVERYMED
Directory of Q:\PARTS\WSA000AD.01

File not found
0 bytes free
Press any key to continue


The Recovery disc has a lot of files on it but obviously one critical one is missing. I assume the original OEM operating system files are still on the “hidden partition” and also I have the License key for the Windows XP home edition.
Any help would be gratefully received.
