Jerry,

You read my mind.  That was going to be my next question; how to get around
the proprietary recovery section HP installed from the start.  You hit the
nail on the head!  I will try this soon.

Yup. Basically, you just ignore it, leave it alone - anyway as long as MS-SP isn't bothered by it.

I have a HP laptop which came with a recovery partition. I don't have windows on the laptop now but I used to and:

a) somewhere there is a utility to make recovery dvds which do the same job so you can remove the recovery partition. b) there is a HP backup and recovery utility - you might have to install it from the HP software. There is an option to remove the recovery partition with it.

The dvd creation utility might be part of the back and recovery partition. I've used the recovery dvd's 2 or 3 times, they work fine, including recreating the recovery partition.

Sorry i can't give you more exact details, HTH.
