Recovery disks. HP doesn't make them, expecting you to do so, taking meticulous time before legitimately using your shiny, brand-spanking new device fresh out of the box to plan its eventual funeral arrangements. I assure you, with these, the date comes very fast.

Some third party websites may have last will and testaments that fit your computer's needs for facilitating reincarnation. But good luck, it's a crapshoot. Even if your info's spot on, you might easily get the disks for a model number digit or two off shipped to you. "Meh, close enough," is worthless.

How do you make a Windows XP setup disks?

some xp-installed computers do not have a feature to create backups of the system that came pre-installed. I personally had to pay $50 to hp to get a set of 8 recovery discs. no-it was not a single CD for just installing windows xp on a computer it was all the software that came on the hard-drive when i bought it. the assumption companies make is that the recovery partition on the hard-drive will never fail you. so if you don't have the windows xp CD you have to use the recovery partition of your drive or recovery CD set.

How can you run a recovery disc on a HP Pavilion laptop when it no longer reads the recovery disc or any DVDS for that matter?

You really might want to consider getting the drive repaired. However, depending on the cost of the repair (if it's out of warranty already), buying a new DVD/optical drive might be the only option. Alternatively, you might consider an external USB optical drive. But in the case of an external one, you'll have to have your system boot from it (assuming that the option to boot from a USB drive is available in the BIOS) when you want something read from it upon start up (such as the recovery discs).

What is the difference between Hard partition and Soft partition in Mac OS X?

A hard partition restructures the disc and each partition is recognised as a separate disc. A soft partition allows the operating system to recognise the partitions as separate discs but without changing the structure of the drive. Remember to always backup the contents of a disc before partitioning - even with a soft partition.
