have a new harddrive and a copy of the Presario_RP only and need info on how to rebuild the drive with the recovery partition ability.
1st: Partition size =does it matter? was 5.1 MB
2nd: The partition location for Presario_RP should it be the 1st or 2nd partition (the orig had it as the 1st)
3rd: The partition type for Presario_RP should it be (Logic or Primary)
4th: The partition status for Presario_RP should it be (active, boot, system, none) and how to make it system
5th: The partition system for Presario_RP should it be (fat32 or NTFS) was FAT32
I put all the Presario_RP partition I made and try to start with f10 I get a blank screen and a Underline curser (freeze)
then
I start with windows CD for the windows Repair and it gives me the I386 or MiniNT to log into have done both and dir a Fixboot and Fixmbr no luck to boot with F10
last there is no COMPAQ splash screen.
