my_e36 43 Report post Posted August 2, 2008 If it was a branded computer, the recovery discs should come with the computer. As for data recovery, it's best to take it to a trusted computer shop or have someone come to you BEFORE you try to reinstall windows. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
