Since you declined making the restore DVD and it appears they don't sell it then you should look at ACRONIS to make a clone of your drive.

In June 07 I purchased my first Advent QT5500 laptop, it came complete with Vista Home. I have previously used XP without problems. On setting up the laptop I was given the option to create a recovery disc, I did not have any DVD's so I declined (big mistake!).
I recently turned my laptop on to be greeted by a black screen with white writing advising of a system failure. I was given three options to rectify this - start in safe mode, start normally, start in recovery mode (recommended)I tried all three and went round in a circle. I then returned the laptop to PC World Techteam who stated that the laptop needed data recovery on the Ibas system but this could be sorted out by inserting the recovery disc that I had made!!! OOPS!
The laptop was away for nearly two weeks, and I have tried without success since its return to create a recovery disc. I do not want to go through this scenario again, can anyone please help?
