Amilo Li1718 HDD failed - how do I get installation discs?

Postby bigdaddy » Thu Jan 01, 2009 9:02 pm

My Amilo Li1718 HDD doesnt work - it sounds like the hdd can't start up properly. The laptop eventually reports no operating system found. Looks like the HDD is dead and will need to be replaced. It is a 120Gb Sata drive. The laptop was received with Vista basic installed, I don't have a recovery disc or Vista instal discs.
Can anyone tell me where can I get these from so I can reinstal the OS? I looked on the Fujitsu Siemens site and only found downloads for Germany!

I'd appreciate any help or suggestions that can help me get up and running again.
