Welcome to geeks to go.
Please do not bump the topic. It will look like someone is helping you already.
Your best bet is to get the recovery discs from HP. There will be a minimal charge. They will be specific to that computer.
Using discs from another HP is not allowed due to the licensing. The OS can only be installed on 1 computer.
Besides, even though you think they are identical, they are not exact. A recovery CD has everything for that unit including drivers that are board specific.
There are ways to get the data off the drive provided that it is not a physical crash.
If it is a physical/ mechanical crash you might get some off. Just depends how bad.
Slave the drive to another computer or put it in a external enclosure.
