I tried this on my HP desktop dual booting with Ubuntu 9.10, and nothing happenedYou have to use the correct combination of keys. And that is dependent on the computer manufacturer and whether there is even a recovery partition.
The following are only a few.
Recovery Partitions
Dell
press and hold ctrl + F11 for recovery
HP
Press the power button to start the HP. Press and hold the F11 key to launch the HP Recovery Manager from the recovery partition.
Gateway
you're supposed to hold down the ALT key and repeatedly tap f10.
When you hit F11, the system boots to another partition on the hard drive.

This is the HP instructions Nick2.0.
Press the power button to start the HP. Press and hold the F11 key to launch the HP Recovery Manager from the recovery partition.
If it doesn't work you may not have a Recovery Partition
BTW it would be better for you to start your own topic
Although your issue may seem similar there can be other factors that may need to be resolved.
By bumping on someone's topic it makes it confusing for the tech to understand who they are helping. This can in turn cause the wrong support to be given and can cause instability or worse to happen to your system.
Please post more information as to your exact issue in your topic. Include any error messages you get as well as your system specs. This will help us to assist you more efficiently.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Too many have posted in this topic stating "it doesn't work". I have no clue who still needs help.
That is why we require a separate topic instead of bumping some one else's.
