Dell Dimension 5150 SRCD Download
I lost the recovery partition on my Dell Dimension 5150. Is there a download site for the recovery partition image file to recover the recovery partition?
Thank you for your help.
Sincerely

No the recovery partition is uninque to your system and once it is gone it cannot be restored

I realise this is an old post, but my elderly neighbour has just deleted the XP recovery partition and I said I’d get it back for him. It is now 3.2GB of Unallocated Space. I tried EaseUs but it couldn’t find the partition.
Since you posted, did you find a way to recover the partition?
Thank you.

XP reaches End of Life in April and hence should not continue to be used. See:
Its time to upgrade to Windows 7 or 8.1:

Use the following drivers for Windows 7 64 Bit:

Note Windows 8.1 64 Bit may reject the processor on this system but Windows 8.1 32 Bit should work.
