I remember those Armadas well, even though they were commercial laptops and
we in Consumer ES had no support role there. FYI, remember that Win 98 (or
was it 95?) also was available on floppies, 29 of 'em!

I love your sense of absolute.

Too bad you're wrong.

Even my Compaq Armada 4141T from 1996 didn't come with any disks.

You had to create 35 floppies!

That comment doesn't even make sense. All computers come with

either
restore cd's and the OS CD or at least restore CD's. To say that

they
dont
is just a lie.

Dude, call Compaq and get you some CD's! I just bought one and it

came
with
both restore and OS.

Many new Presarios do not have them. If yours came with a CD/DVD

burner,
it
likely has software to create your own Restore CDs/DVDs. Shoulda

done
that
first thing. You might call Compaq support. They may have a

Recovery
CD
for
your Presario which will work with the Restore Partition

(Presario_RP).

Bought a new Compaq Presario last month and because of some

problems,
I
am
told I need to do a complete Restoration. Problem is, I never

got
any
Restoration CD or OS CD with this system. Was I suppose to????

Got the system at Orifice Depot.

Regards and thanks in advance....
