    The greyed text just say that by checking the box, I agree to use the recovery disk only on this computer.

    There is no abnormal message... I just can't click OK to create the backup dvds.

    Have you tried inserting a blank DVD?

    Call up support, more than likely they will either figure out the problem or send you free recovery disks.

    I called. I'm gonna receive the discs in 2 to 5 days.


    Now, is it safe to delete the recovery partition? I would try Windows 7 until I receive the discs.

    I'm so glad I went with Lenovo, even if i was in the first batch of order with huge delays. Top notch customer service. It took 6 minutes and the problem was fixed.
