Recovery Disc Problem

[docevil]

I couldn't quite find where to post this, so I hope here is ok.

I have been trying to figure out how to burn myself a set of Vista Recovery discs so that I have something to fall back on if my Win 7 installation is not to my liking. The problem is, whenever I try and use the Recovery Manager to create the discs I am met with the error:

Sonic: PX.dll not found

I have not already created any discs in the past and I havn't ever had any Sonic software installed on my computer. My burner functions perfectly as well.

Does the D: drive contain actual images (.ISO) that I could use to burn a set of discs, or is it a process the recovery manager has to do?

What machine have you got?

Try downlaoding and installing the latest engine & drivers from here:

See 6. and 7. at this link :

I am on a modified Compaq presario SR5710Y. the only changes that I've made are the GPU, PSU and Tower.

EDIT: The sonic update did not do the trick

How old is the unit?

Couldn't be more than 6 months old. If anything, I know it isn't a year old yet.

call HP Compaq support there should send you a copy of your recovery DVD's free.

They will need model No & Tag No.
