I am trying to access the win xp recovery console because my mbr is messed up and I have to use a boot disk to start windows. All places say that I need to use the "windows xp" cd to access the recovery console. The problem is, I have a sony vaio and I have the system recovery cds (3 of them). But none of them are specified as the windows xp cd and there is no option to access the recovery console from the sony system recovery cds. What do i do?
