Is the system running MS Vista? I had this problem with a PC the other day. What I ended up doing was using an XP disk to format the HDD, then before I rebooted I ejected the XP disk and insterted the recovery disk. When the system rebooted, THEN it booted from the recovery disk.
if the recovery disk came with the system yes it will have a copy of everything that came on the PC when you bought it if you upgraded th OS you will have to do a upgrade after you have used the recovery disk.
by using the recovery disk you will return every thing back to the factory so you will lose all your saved data, bookmarks, pic, and doc's.
