I didn't get a Windows Media Center re-installation CD with my laptop, and I bought it brand new from Dell.
Should I have got one? My friend didnt get one either, and we have the same laptop.
I have an XP re-installation CD on my Dell desktop computer.. but none came with my laptop with media center.

I had the same issue. But the good news is - you can always create some re-store CDs for the disaster time. The catalog should've put some pages on how to create those. Otherwise just google those words--and there are many websites that have step by step instructions to create'em.
Good Luck.

No, Bios has no longer some thing to do with residing house windows. you could purchase a restore disk from HP on your computer or pass and purchase a clean reproduction of residing house windows media center. i'd not advise doing a equipment backup or ghost because i'm assuming you've themes with your modern-day installation, because you pick to reformat the rigidity to commence with....

they now have the restore disc pre installed on the hard drive in a different part, if you need to format, turn on co,puter and immediately start tapping f10 button and another screen will come up and load in your options to do a destructive recovery or a couple of other options, the destructive option is the one you want if you need to reformat and do a clean install. hope this helps

if your laptop is preinstalled then no need for extra cd . you need to make the recovery disc using the wizard provided in all programs........
