 Miffed Hard Drive Problems

OK, so when I bought my laptop it came with Windows XP installed, no disc. However this version of windows broke...something about a file missing...anyway luckily the laptop has an in-built system recovery...however I couldn't get onto the desktop to activate it...so I installed a less than reputable version of Windows XP onto my laptop(deleting everything on the C: drivet) so that I would be able to run the recovery system...which is stored on a seperate drive called RECOVERY.

However the usual link, found in System Tools is no longer there...but the drive is...how do I boot from that drive?

restart it in failsafe and see if it isn't possible to make a recovery that way round.
