Default Re: Recovery Disk
Hello George do you know if you have recovery console installed on this computer?

Is this Vista or XP?


» Run the Dell™ OS Recovery Utility
The Dell OS Recovery Utility allows the creation of ONE operating system CD. This means that you can make one Windows® CD for backup purposes.
Note:
If you have not created your backup CD you should take the time to create the CD and store it in a safe place now.
You will need a blank CD-R disc and a CD-R/W or DVD-R/W drive installed on your Dell computer to complete the steps below.
  1. Click the Start button on your Windows desktop.
  2. Click All Programs, Dell Accessories, and then Dell OS Recovery CD.
    If you have a portable computer, plug in the AC adapter.
  3. Click the OK button.
    The Dell Software License Agreement window appears.
  4. Read the license agreement and then click to select Yes, I accept if you agree to the terms.
  5. Click the Next button.
    A Welcome message appears prompting you to place a blank CD-R disc into your writeable drive.
  6. Place a blank CD-R disc into your writeable drive if you have not already done so and click the Next button.
    The program will create your backup OS Recovery CD.
    Note: The program can take up to 30 minutes to create your backup disc.
    When the backup disc is complete a Congratulations! message appears.
  7. Remove the CD-R disc from the writeable drive and label it Windows Operating System Backup CD.
  8. Click the Finish button.
Congratulations! You have successfully created your Windows operating system backup CD. Store the CD in a safe and easy to find location.

Then you would need to contact Dell for a set of recovery CDs.
