I had backed up my 80-GB-harddisk with TrueImage (v6 or v7) including the bootsector. Nonetheless the new harddisk (with a different partitioning scheme) was unable to respond to the player buttons. Apparently the player software is very sensitive to changes in the harddisk layout; a 1:1-cloning between identical harddisks might do. Possibly after cloning to a larger disk a consecutive enlarging of windows partions behind the player partition towards the free high sector end could work.
My personal problem is: after putting in a 160-GB-disk Acronis TrueImage cannot install or rather use its boot recovery manager. With 80 GB the "press F11 for Acronis True Image" came reliably every time I booted.

If the discs are clean and pretty much scratch free, then this is most likely a bad hard drive. If you have another PC or laptop, try burning copies of the recovery cds and then use those. If the problem remains, you will need a new hard drive.

Did you know you only get ONE shot at creating a recovery disc? And most of the time it is garbage, just like Vista.
He tried to put XP on it and failed? weird.
A couple things you can do...
1. Get your hands on a Vista disk. If you know anyone that works in IT, you can borrow a Vista disk. Do a complete fresh install. Use your "Product Key" and you will have your own Licensed, perfectly legal version of Vista.
2. Get yourself a copy of XP. Delete all partitions, then create a new one. Don't try to save that Vista recovery partition...it's toast. I recommend XP, but I'm a dinosaur.

As far as I know (I have a Toshiba though a few years old now) and do a Recover to Factory Default state from Hidden Partition every 6 to 9 months and I hav enever been told to Tap F1 but instead Hold down "0" i.e he Zero button on my laptop as I turn the Laptop On from an Off state by pressing the Pwr Button and ONLY release the "0" button when I get a Recovery Meny with 4 Options I think.
Your Model might be a different Button on the Keyboard so PLEASE check your User Guide/Manual for instruction.
