I have lost the recovery disk to one of my computers. It is a HP VL8i.

The computer is running really slow, so what I want to do is reset it back to factory specification.

I have tried the HP site, but they do not say where I can buy the disk.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Alan

you can't actually buy the recovery disks. They come as part of the bill of materials from manufacturing. It's like asking for another original card board box.
