The harddrive on my 4 year old Sony Vaio desktop recently failed. I have
replaced it with a 160gb drive. I am trying to reinstall windows xp from the
system recovery disks provided by Sony (no original win xp disks were
provided). When I run the recovery disks it forces me to partition the drive
into a 8 gb system c: drive and tells me it will also create d: drive.
However, it fails to create the d: drive. I am stuck with only 8 out of 160
gb.
Is there another way to reinstall my win xp without using the system
recovery disks? Or is there some secret to using the system recovery disks?
I don't even know how to contact Sony to beg for help.
Thanks
