I have replaced the 40GB disk with a new 160GB.
Then I used rescue & recovery cds to create a predesktop area - this worked fine.
When trying to recover my system (selecting "erase c:\ partition only") from hdd
it says that it's unable to use the rescue & recovery product module..
Searching the forum I found that it might be related to RAM (I have removed the additional 512MB) so the system has now 512MB.. changed the predesktop area in BIOS from Normal to Secure.. still getting the same error.
Can this be related to the size of the new disk?
As I can see from the live linux cd rescue & recovery cds created partitions and there is a >140GB fat32 (and pre destkop partition as well).
Thanks
