I need recovery discs for my sony vaio VPCEB3J1E/BQ

[mhabiela]

I bought sony vaio model VPCEB3J1E/BQ unfortunately I have experienced difficulties with strating it so I have given it to an expert and he formatted it so I lost sony software and unfortunately I did not prepare recovery discs so I need on, any one can help me?

I am grateful to you "Blencogo". I will try this, hope the "Non-Expert"  did not format the whole disc.

"you have lost all the drivers and Driver Magician is not much use." thats without doubt not strictly true, ive had many occasions even in the last week where i have formated the sony vaio vgn-nr32m and used the software i have stated to regain some drivers.

and just to say soemthign esle, would i be wrong in assuming that just becuase a user uses the recovery discs, this doesnt not mean its gaurenteed to work on the new os, especially if you go from vista to windows 7 and even xp to vista or windows 7, and deffinatrly if its goes from 32bit to 64bit.

"Some Drivers" is not much good.  All the 64-bit drivers are available for download - I'm not quite sure why you would need to pay for Driver Magician.

The Recovery Discs are Windows 7 64-bit.

Many Thanks to you Both. I'll consider your comments and suggestions.

i may be wrong, but the recovery discs 64bit version are only avaliable to the laptops that have already gt 64bit drivers.

which goes with what i was saying about the recovery disc not being that relaible if the original drivers are only 32 bit.

Please check your facts before posting - you are just confusing users who have come here for help.

It only takes a moment to check that the original drivers for this model are 64-bit.  It was sold with Windows 7 64-bit preinstalled and the Recovery discs are 64-bit.

erm calm down their tiger.

first i was correct in what i was sayign since it was an assumption and a question from ymself stating that a recovery disc for a specific laptop would be of no use if the operating system is 64bit windows 7 so to speak, and the recovery disc is 32bit and cant work with windows 7.

so all you needed to say is that i was wrong, and clearly state WHY i was wrong.

instead of course you for some reaosn got on your high horse and accused me of not stating FACTS when i wasnt even doing that in my reply.
