Solve : Computer Boots Into ASUS Recovery Wizard?

Answer»

Also, I don't have a system repair disk. I only have a recovery disk. Is it possible to actually burn one and use that? Or is that illegal.
If you have a Recovery Disk, boot your computer with it and see if there is a Repair option.Hello,

I got my hands on Linux and booted my PC with it. Now I can recover all my files, so I figured that I will just do a recovery.
Unfortunately, my recovery CD that came with my laptop doesn't have a repair option, here are it's options:
Recover Windows to FIRST partition only.
Recover Windows to entire HD.
Recover Windows to entire HD with 2 partitions.
What exactly do they MEAN, and what will they do?Quote

Just as I thought. You will need to save your important data. Next, click on My Computer and tell me how many drives do you see. That will determine which option you will use.I have a C and a D partition, each 500 GB. Also a 26 GB recovery drive, what does this do?
To be honest, I would like to get the stuff out of there and do a full recovery as I don't need 500 GB for my C drive. 200 GB will suffice.
Also, if I recover it to a single partition, do I have to partition myself a recovery drive?Quote

Your OS is on the C drive and the Recovery Console is on another partition. The D drive is your third partition. Your OS should be on a drive of it's own. If you EVER have to do a repair or recovery your other data is protected because it's on another partition. In your case you should choose Quote
Recover Windows to first partition only.
. Once you have your computer running correctly, you can use a partition program to configure your partitions that whatever you want.
You can find one here. I believe this is the one I used for my computer. Use the freeware one because you probably won't have any use for it afterwards.[/COLOR]So if I use "Recover Windows to first partition only." only my first partition will be recovered? I will go ahead and do the recovery tomorrow, sort of busy today.

Thanks so much for your help, I appreciate the time and effort you've put in.
