G60-458DX Recovery Nightmare - Computerspecialist2001 - 12-02-2011

Victoirehello,

I'm currently having problems with this HP G60-458DX. I created the recovery discs and replaced the hard-drive because the hard-drive went bad.
The recovery discs were corrupted. I copied the recovery partition onto a 15GB partition in the new drive and attempted to run the recovery utility in the BIOS but to no avail, i get error 1002. I upgraded the BIOS and now the recovery manager does not even show up. Can i just burn the recovery partition onto a bootable ISO? Please help me out with some technical suggestions. I know i can order the recovery discs, this is not a big deal to me so please lets keep negative and useless information from the thread.

Thank You!

Well if the disk are corrupted you can get no data off them.
Does the new hard drive work by its self?
