It is not a good idea to buy from Ebay. If the machine was from
Toshiba, then Toshiba can send you the recovery disks. If the machine
is from DELL then it is still possible to create the recovery disks.
Recovery disks can be created even at this late stage. All you need is
to ask a specific question either here or on Microsoft Forums. I feel
sorry for the OP. The guy wants help and people have started attacking
him for nothing. I also feel guilty in this because I didn't understand
his original question. I thi9nk the OP should start a new thread about
recovering his computer and we can all start helping him. This thread
is contaminated with all sorts of industry language and it undermines
the help we are trying to give here.
