Re: create a recovery partition

Two possible solutions:

1st Solution:

Contact Dell and purchase the CD/DVD's for your model if they support it.

2nd Solution;

Use a program similar to what Norton Ghost could do that will create image
file that can be run to restore a partition. Create a bootable partition
(DOS) that will execute the executable image file.

Hi.

The recovery partition is already there, during startup press Ctrl + F11.
Be sure and backup all your data before proceeding, this will format your
drive and reinstall the Operating System back to factory specs.

Re: create a recovery partition

Best to create a partition and put an image there as well as from time to
time you may want to keep some files etc safe from all except a drive
failure.

Of all the possible places to put a backup, that's far and away the
weakest. I strongly recommend against it.

It leaves you susceptible to simultaneous loss of the original and
backup to many of the most common dangers: hard drive crashes, severe
power glitches, nearby lightning strikes, virus attacks, even theft of
the computer.

In my view, secure backup needs to be on removable media, and not kept
in the computer. For really secure backup (needed, for example, if the
life of your business depends on your data) you should have multiple
generations of backup, and at least one of those generations should be
stored off-site.

I recommend buying an external USB drive and using that for backup.
Drives are very inexpensive these days.
