My lap is hp 530 notebook. A friend formatted d recovery disk/partition in my system(HP_RECOVERY (D) which i once used to restore my system to it's original factory shipment condition. P/s how do i get it back. Secondly, my dvd drive is refusing to open. If i insert disk after applying force to open it, it tells me no disk. I need help as i am new to computer. (do laugh, U were once like me)

S.O.S - DEAR ALL, p/s I have two immediate problems. MY friend formatted my HP recovery hard disk in my p.c (HP 530 notebook - windows vista). I usually use what he removed to restore my system to it's factory shipment condition. how can i get it back? I used service pack 1 and i noticed a difference.

Secondly i'm desperate about getting a software or manual with which i can use to teach myself computer - microsoft office 2007. my window is vista. the one i have is xp. TRUE CONFESSION-i am new to computer and my job demands of it. is there any i can download materials or software in respect to that WITH REFERENCE VISTA.
