    Well F3 does work, but for some reason it's not doing what it's suppose to. It justs logs me into windows like normal. Also I'm pretty sure I didn't format my recovery partition because it's still there.

    I'm running windows 7 64bit edition if that helps.

    Have you used it before or is it the first time?

    Your recovery .iso was on C:\.

    EDIT: I should still have mine somewhere if you wanna find somewhere for me to host the .isos.

    Yeah they should have put them on the backup drive by default.

    How would I go about that. I have the .isos at home. Oh, is your lappy a GT725? I'm not sure if it'll work if yours is a different model.
