ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1215N-PU17-BK recovery disc Is there any recovery discs for this netbook? I'm reading statements to the effect that Asus doesn't provide a way to reload a crashed Windows?

You press F9 as soon as you turn on the pc to enter the recovery mode.<< F9 Quick Recovery KeyOn Eee PCs, users can easily recover system files that were accidentally altered or deleted. During boot up, by pressing the F9 key, users reset the factory default system files to external USB storage, and users can also easily restore the system back to its original factory settings. The system restore function is especially important when the Eee PC is infected with a virus or important system files are accidentally deleted. >>

The best way to have a recover disc on this netbook is to make an image copy of the hdd with some sort of image backup software. Asus does not provide any recovery disc with this netbook as I understand it.

it is not on this laptop....neither is there a CD drive...I am totally unhappy with this laptop, and the vendor I bought it from. I would advise to stay away from both.

actually the DVD works very well now with the netbook I have. I should update my last comments..soon - the window XP model was from a few years back 1005HA. But I don't see why this hardward is not working with the new one. There is a support number sticker on the netbook bottom. You can call just double check and will send if you don't have it.

My luck was poor...I ordered a Notebook with Windows 7, Core i5 and DVD-RW and received a Windows 8, Core i3 and no DVD drive. Now I can't get a RA# to return it.

We were very happy with the purchase, but I Honestly wish I could help. The tech that did the install is no longer with my company so I am not sure if this came with a recovery disk. Good luck.

Hey, I have a Asus 1015PED and I have done some research and this will work. Have I acctually installed it, no. It is on it's way to me though and I will keep you up to date.The info on the Asus Netbook is DDR3, so, it will work. But there is only one slot, so we'll have to remove to 1gig in there now, and replace it with this 2gig.I will let you know when I get mine to confirm it works, but with all the research I've done, I am 100% sure it will work. I wouldn't have bought the netbook or the memory if I was even 1% unsure.Hope that helps.

Nope! Asus says that you just need to put the original HDD back in before sending your laptop in for servicing.

Copy the software from the CD to a flash drive and the plug the flash drive into the ASUS and youre good to go. Works for me.I also purchase a little slim CD/DVD burner on ebay for about 46 bux. it plugs into two of the usb points, one for data and one for power. It's about 1/2" thick and just a little bigger the a CD.

Netbooks don't have disc drives for CDs. I bought an external drive but never use it. I usually find an ISO for anything I want to install or I make an ISO on my other computer and share it.

Doesn't come with one, but you don't need one. From the product description above:"The Eee PC 1005PR-P makes system reinstallation simple with a built-in recovery program that can restore your system to its original factory settings by simply pressing F9 three times during start-up. Coupled with ASUS WebStorage, you can easily back-up your data prior to system recovery to pick up wherever you leave off without a hitch."Same instructions in the manual. Makes sense to me. After all, the netbook doesn't come with a cd/dvd reader. They sort of have to presume you don't necessarily own one (even though it is rather silly not to).

I have been quite happy with my ASUS 1015PED Netbook that I actually never ended up purchasing this memory upgrade. I did shop around a little more and found that this one still is the most recemended. It is a great deal as well, which is why it is usually out of stock.I would recomend this one and I may still get this one. However for right now, I upgraded my ASUS netbook to Windows 7 Professional and it runs great. No need for more memory right now.Sorry I can't be of more help.

I don't know. The netbook had inadequate memory to operate properly so it was returned.

I purchased the EeePC withthe 4 GBhD with Windows XP installed. I found that the combination of the automatic Windows updates and Antivirus updates rapidly filled the 4GB HD and now the system doesn't operate well despite the fact that i have not installed any program on the HD.No one seems to have an answer at ASUS except turn off the updates. I am not happy with the situation, faced with a hard drive upgrade.Wayne

Ronald,Thanks for your interest in GoGet Computers!Unfortunately, Microsoft has changed its policy and does not supply us with extra Windows 7 reboot discs, so unfortunately we can no longer distribute them to our customers. However, we create a partition on our computers that allows you to select the option to perform a system restore from the start up screen. I hope this answered your question.
