Hi
Firstly thank you guys so much for your speedy reply!!! I really do appreciate it!!
The links you guys sent me was for drivers, softwareand bios updates. Which will definelty help me!
But the thing is I need to create a utility / recovery partition on my hard drive, to, for example upgrade bios or run e-diagtools...and well, hp told me that the only way of doing so was if the laptop has a utiliy / recovory partition and the only way of creating that partition is woth the recovery discs(which i dont have).
Im at a point where i dont know what to do...Im not really a computer guru so i basically try to do things as far as i can do it. I live in a very small town and taking the laptop in to a professional will just be too much of a hassle and money! Its crazy how much they charge in smaller towns!
Okey, thanks once agian and if you have any advice or idea of how to solve this problem Im all ears.
thaks again.
