    reinstall Win7 Starter on a netbook after recovery partition deleted


    I have a Acer Netbook which has a hidden partition for Windows 7 system recovery. A month ago, I install Linux Ubuntu on the netbook and accidentally deleted the recovery partition during installation.

    the netbook is out of warranty, anyone know how to get the win7 starter back?

    Did you make the OEM manufacturer's Recovery Disks?
