hp compaq desktop won't finish recovery?Hi. I have an hp Compaq CQ5110F win Vista. I have tried to run recovery manager with original boot disks and each time is stuck at 22% on the last disk.
I have done this several times and waited two days and still remains at the 22%. I even tried running from a copy disk and it is rejected saying it is a bad disk. Help.

Turn on the computer, insert the first recovery disc into the first (top) optical drive, and then turn off the computer again (press and hold the power button).
Turn on the computer and wait for the inital logo screen to appear.
The next screen should be blank with a cursor blinking in the upper left corner of the screen. When the cursor drops one line immediately press and hold the Ctrl key, and momentarily press the Backspace key.
The Manufacturer Menu opens. If not, try again. If you cannot open the manufacturer menu, it may not be available.
Manufacturer Menu:
clear the partition table of drive 1
erase the Master Boot Record of drive 1
wipe all sectors of drive 1
Save DMI Sysinfo to drive 1
Test the system RAM for defects
restart this CDROM
Select option clear the partition table of drive 1 .
The screen goes black displaying a blinking cursor. After a few seconds the Recovery Manager screen opens.
Click Cancel on the Recover Manager screen to restart the computer
Turn on the computer and repeat step 3 to open the Manufacturer Menu.

Select option wipe all sectors of drive .
An Erasing Hard Drive progress bar displays at the bottom of the screen. All data on the hard drive is erased and replaced with new data. This process can take a considerable amount of time, depending on installed RAM, the size of the hard drive, hard drive speed, CPU speed, etc... (approximately 250 GB per hour).
After the hard drive is erased the Recovery Manager screen opens. Read and respond to the screens to complete a system recovery.
