I have bought a replacement disc. However I do not have a recovery disc. As the unit is designed for wireless interfaces, keyboard etc. I am struggling to get the machine to boot to a state where I can start the installation of an OS on the new disk. I do not have a recovery disk (yes I know I should have done this :smileysad:).<BR /><BR />Could anybody advise me on the best way to resolve this issue. <BR /><BR />Many thanks in advance.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 17 May 2010 10:41:04 GMT jablake33 2010-05-17T10:41:04Z XL201 Disc failure https://community.sony.ua/t5/pcs-accessories/xl201-disc-failure/m-p/131801#M13514 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi All,<BR /><BR />My hard disc has failed on my XL201.
