Hello. I have a Gateway notebook, MX3231. Although I have had it for some time I have never had to restore the system. I would like to make a set of reocvery dics from the notebook. Gateway claims that the dics can be made from the partition off the hard drive, I have tried and have gotten nowhere. The error message I get is "Recovery CD/DVD Creator no recovery partition update CD file found. Process aborted". Using Win Search I have found files that appear to be the ones I'm looking for but I can't access then,I have even tried a RUN command,from imformation gotten from Gateway's web support on the subject and still I can't make a set of disc. According to the Gateway web support this is a one shot deal, the dics can only be made once, I have never made any. Any ideas on this problem?
