    "Alien Respawn has not been able to detect the recovery partion on this computer. It may be missing or Corrupted"

    Is what shows whenever i click on AR...
    I've tried to restart, click F8 and repair, coz i know that will lead me to reboot options (want to have it from factory default)
    But it just starts normally.... and ignors my request.

    I dont see how anything could be 'missing' or 'corrupted' :confused: ive barely had the laptop long...

    Also, i cannot make any recovery backup, because of this ... all its notifying me from tiome to time is to upgrade, which costs!! :/

    Confused, and really need help.
    I want to reboot and not lose the alieanware programmes.
