Any another tool exists to manage EISA recovery ??yes it’s probably the problem but the place of the recovering partition is still here and the same. how to restore the mbr to use it ? any tool ? any idea ?

Recovery Partition rebuild with F4 key enableBTW I’m interested in solutions to this since recently installing Win 7, as dual boot, the MBR has been changed on my machine.
Hope this helps
If your recovery partition is still there it is easy to restore the F4 functionality. I just did this a few minutes ago.
Just proceed like in this thread here. This thread is also metioned here somewhere in this forum.
You just need the mentioned ISO file, extract it and copy it to an external USB drive. After this you have to run “AdminTool.exe” and execute step 2. It is important that you copy the files and folders into the root directory and not into a separate folder on your drive, otherwise an error message will appear.
But it is a lot easier as mentioned above. You just need to execute “RecoverySettingsIII.exe” which is located in the tools folder. After this reboot and the F4 key is working again.
I discovered this because I copied the files into a different folder and not into the root directory of the USB drive. So I received the message that “RecoverySettingsIII.exe” is missing. I found it on the drive and executed it separately. The button “execute” in the step 2 of “AdminTool.exe” just copies the “RecoverySettingsIII.exe” on your desktop and tells you that you have to execute this – nothing more.
Regards, Frank

Frank – Thanks for the information – very helpful
The thread you are thinking of in your earlier post is Recovery Partition rebuild with F4 key enable posted by dosibox who has the username NC10 on the blogeee.net French forum.
I now need to look at ways of backing up the D: drive Win7 installation to the recovery partition that will work with F4 on a dual boot XP/Win 7 setup. 😕
