Hi, I deleted Windows Vista(Dutch) from my laptop AMILO Pi 1505 (because of slow network transfer) to install Windows XP. I formatted the whole HD and made 2 partitions, but there was a sata driver problem so i diceded to install Vista again and guess what. That hidden partition I deleted before is necessary to install Vista again with a Recovery DVD. After that i downloaded a Vista DVD image(English) from the net and installed with my legit OEM KEY and everything was ok, but now I get a popup to activate my Vista. I really like to install my old Vista again with my own Recovery DVD, I'm stuck now. Who can help me with this problem. btw: sorry for my english Smile Thanx Edit: Problem is solved. I made an ISO file off my Recovery dvd and added a bootimage to make it bootable. Installation went fine and the hidden recovery partition was not needed.
