Fred,
Not sure what you mean by a recovery disk. You can download the image of a boot floppy from www.bootdisk.com but you cannot legally download a copy of Win Me unless you are a subscriber to MSDN and buying a copy on eBay would be many times cheaper than buying a year's subscription. It is just possible that some OEMs make available for download images of their recovery CDs for use with their machines but I have never heard of any that in fact do so. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Fred Bower wrote: I think my hard drive has been wiped clean.

Recovery disk for what? Operating system recovery? Data recovery? Do you want to restore your operating system or retrieve your personal data? I can tell you now if its your data you need, it's going to be expensive to recover if you changed anything since the Wipeout. Otherwise you can try searching online for free downloads,file restoration, but beware if the programs does not work then you have to go into dos and manually restore your files |
