That's disgraceful customer service that you have to pay for discs you should already have (It is also free for them to make these discs as software drivers are free). What happens exactly to the PC at the moment? What errors/problems do you have?
i was watching a film went to the door and a blue screen come up saying pc hard recovered from from a error anyways windows woulnd load so a pal of mine give me his windows xp home disk because i have a windows key code on the laptop when i try'd to put my key into windows set up it said key was wrong so my pal give me his key anyway on my hard drive there is a partition on the and the recovery media is on the partittion but i need to know how i can get the recovery off the hard drive to make a disk and help would be great i just dont want to run a copy of windows as my g/f is cry's about that sort of thing
If you don't have to recover any of the data that is on your hard drive, you should be able to boot directly into that recovery, when you boot up. Go through the normal process of turning on your computer, and you press whatever key, right away, to get into the recovery program. Your manual should tell you which key to hit.
