This unit does not come with cd or dvd it only has usb ports. also the restore option is OFF be default in the BIOS. where you have to BIOS to turn on as to RESTORE.

if it came down to it, i could use the USB install method. but i believe you are correct, and there is a recover partition installed. (though not the issue)

and as far as buying a new screen, the little kid who keeps bugging me to fix it, is only 12, and cant work, under US law (ergo = no $ to buy one)

i think my options are running scarce. but thanks for the help guys.

Now this child of 12. where might she be. in relation to others, whom might have olders working stuff close by .
State (NY) and town might be of assistance. you never know.
who might live close to you and be willing to GIVE.

Here is the cheapest Screen I could find for the same system, color should make no difference.
I'd love to have both, just for Play and Test.
