Mary G · Answer

What model computer? There are several 23xx all in one models. What do you mean by do a recovery--reinstall windows or make recovery media? There is an easy way to Create Recovery Media by going online to this site:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

Use a usb flash drive that is at least 16gb. It is easier than using dvd disks since the web site will create the recovery drive for you. New computers can boot to usb flash drives.

To make recovery disks using the tool on your computer, open Control Panel and search for Recovery to start the utility that creates them. Make those disks too.
