So, I'm a novice with computers, computing but this has me stymied. I have a compaq cq62 laptop with windows 7 home premium on it. I created the recovery disks when it was pretty new and set them aside. Recently my hard drive failed. I had everything backed up so I just attempted a system restore from the partition which didn't work due to the bad hard drive. I then attempted the system recovery with the disks I had made and it looks like in making the disks one was corrupted. Long story short I have a windows 7 disk and was able to reinstall 7, and get everything working, however I would like to have a recovery partition again just for future proofing. Is there any way I can get the partition software in aftermarket?

Now i never tried this before, since you lost your original recovery partition had to use the disc., you can just use the disc again. Unless you might be better of making a system image with a program like this
