Hi,

As the title suggests I need a recovery disc for a HP/Compaq NC6400. I have been to the HP/Compaq site, but I'd rather find a downloadable, (preferably free) download as I'm in a bit of a rush... and I'd rather not pay their extortionate fees!

Anyone know where I can find it? Or maybe someone's got a CD/DVD they could copy/let me borrow for a couple of days?

Thanks in advance,

John.

Out of interest, how much do Compaq charge for a replacement disk?

£18 IIRC

JV, send me the serial & product number & I'll try my account manager at HP for you.

Hmm, not really what I would call 'extortionate'.

I hate to thread hijack, but I don't suppose anyone has a backup/restore disc for a HP G62-105sa laptop?
