I have a Toshiba a a25-s207 running Windows XP. Toshiba included the
recovery disk on a DVD which includes a fresh windows install as well
as all the drivers required by the laptop. Unfortunately it seems as
if my DVD/CD drive laser is malfunctioning. While the drive still
reads CD, it refuses to read any DVDs. I believe the drive has two
different lasers/circuits so perhaps the DVD one is fried.
Anyway, what is the best way to obtain a relatively clean install of
XP without being able to use my recovery drive?
