BG - HP provides recovery CDs usually for $15 - $20. The disks are listed
at the support/driver site pertaining to individual computers.
If the CD is not available - and it is not for the 523a - it usually
indicates that a recovery partition was not created on the computer. Upon
boot if you did not momentarily see something like "Hit F11 for
restoration..."there was no recovery partition.
I just verified the original drivers and updates are available for the 523a
from the HP support site

I have an HP Pavilion 523a Desktop PC (AP) which I purchased in NZ.
I never created a recovery or back-up disk because I thought that was what
the partition drive was for.
I lost my harddrive and when it went, it also killed the Recovery disk
(there was never a physical disk, there was only the partition drive)
I have contacted HP Support to try and get a set of recovery disks but
they
told me I had to buy a new set of programs because they couldn't provide
me
with any sort of recovery disk!
Is there anyone here who has the same type of computer with the same
programs who has a set of recovery disks they could copy for me? I lost
everything when the drive died and now I have nothing :(
I am especially looking for the Arcsoft Suite (PhotoImpression4, Funhouse,
Greeting Card Creator), MusicMatch Jukebox, RecordNow, and probably others
but I don't remember much else, those were the ones I used most often.
Help? HP has been completely useless to me and quite rude and I am very
unimpressed with how they have treated me over this.
