I may be missing something, but I'm pretty sure an OEM disc is what you want. that's what you'd make if you burned the image to a DVD. WarGreymon77 posted... My old PC had a Vista recovery DVD that saved my ass many times. recovery discs are vendor specific and are basically windows discs that don't really let you install windows. they're just "reset" discs that the computer builder made so that you can reinstall windows without having a real windows disc. (well, there are other things that are called "recovery" discs, but IIRC you make them with windows itself or with OEM discs in the first place.) --- *The truth basks in scrutiny.* http://i.imgur.com/GMouTGs.jpg http://projecteuler.net/profile/Sahuagin.png <cite>Sahuagin posted [p:898788361] in Do they no...
