Please Tell Me Is There A Way To Create A Second Set Of Recovery Disc

Hi Spanky and welcome to the board,

Compaq provides you with the option to create recovery disks.
Try this:
Start/All Programs/PC Help and Tools. You should be able to make Recovery Disks right from there.
Hope this works out for you.

HI Spanky,

I'm sorry, I didn't pay close enough attention, you already burnt one set of disks.

Check this site out, you should be able to order the disks, I did for my daughters PC:

HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - Obtaining a Recovery CD or DVD set

I don't know of any other way to obtain them.

Hopefully this will help you out.
