    I was fixing it for a customer and somehow the recovery partition got ****ed, I need to put it back to manufacturer state, because if she presses the F10 it's not going to work, and she is going to get back at me, so just to save my self the headache if you know what I mean.....LOL

    I've done a few of these they are a nightmare. From memory recovery discs don't work, this was one of the first HPs to make 'locked' recovery discs that the customer has to make. It was so long ago that I can't remember what the fix is.

    Drive snapshot will make a nice customer image, it's what I use.
