An increasing number of machines are shipped with these to cut back on costs. While they allow you to get your system back to its factory settings they're very inflexible and can put your data at risk if you've repartitioned your drive to separate your documents from Windows.     Panic not, for it's perfectly possible to create an installation CD from the files on your hard drive or recovery disc. This site will show you how to do just that.
