Default Recovery Disks for Refurbished Computer

Johnny wrote:



I bought an old computer that was refurbished by U.S. Micro
Corporation, an authorized Microsoft refurbisher.

It came with Windows 7 Professional installed, and I don't see anyway
to make the recovery disks. There is no recovery manager in Programs,
but there is a recovery partition.

Can recovery disks only be made for a new computer?

vendor: Hewlett-Packard

I don't know if you can make "recovery disks" from a recovery
partition, but you can make a Windows 7 install disk. The recovery
partition, or a disk created from it, would contain all the bloatware
from the manufacturer. The better alternative is to create an install
disk from the following site;
