You might try looking here:http://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial_s&hl=en&q=HP+Pavilion+8750c&btnG=Google+Search or maybe HP.com. I also have a HP, and mine has the system recovery thing that takes it back like new on the hard drive. Does yours not?
Can anyone direct me to where I can find a set of System Recovery disks for an older HP Pavillion 8750c? I just realized that years ago Circuit City boxed up the wrong ones when I bought a "return" computer from them.
Thanks for helping!
