NEW HDD cant recover disk image WD passport not recognized
Hi
I got a new HDD on my HP notebook. I boot to the WIndows Recovery CD. It asks me what image to restore since the HDD is blank. I have backup images on my WD Passport external drive. However it says to install drivers. I have been to the WD website and made a CD by extracting the file they have available for downlad from another computer (which is XP) and tried to use those files on the Recovery Mode however says not recognized. I am finding myself stuck with a blank new HDD and no way to get windows 7 or my image back on there. any help greatly appreciated. thanks
