>Recovery Disks for the HP Compaq presario cq42-300 series.
There have been many different recovery solutions bought to market over the years but the main issue with using a standard recovery disk, is that the operating itself can be very old with unusable drivers. Something like Windows® XP was originally released in 2001, so all the associated drivers and files for that system would be very close to 25 years old. To enhance this old type of OEM recovery disk we supply you with a genuine operating system recovery Disk, driver recovery disk and a system that will scan and update your drivers live. This ensures you have the most up-to-date operating system and drivers available.

We will supply you a perfect genuine and legal restore disk, supplied by a genuine Microsoft authorized digital partner or directly from the OEM manufacturer.
