Dean, that system recovery partition was, unless I am wrong, created by HP. With all their bloatware included.
What you need to do is to create an image of your installation in that partition, as I suggested. Then you can recover this image and get back in time.
Do you intend to delete the data that was in that recovery partition? If not, I would place the image somewhere else. I think you still have the Vista recovery data in there, unless you deleted something. Have you looked into it?
