    Is it possible to recreate the recovery disk?

    There is a good chance that if you simply did "drap n drop", that you did not copy all of the recovery files. There are system files that are not as simple to copy. I successfully copied my recover partition onto a USB and the did a system restore in this thread...

    Administrator Permission?

    It may be easier to leave all of the permissions the same and use CMD line XCOPY. It may be more efficient if you get an external drive and make a restore point on it through your control panel.

    Solved Can't get to BIOS - goes directly to Win boot

    There are links in this thread http://www.eightforums.com/installation-setup/72944-recovery-new-hdd-using-recovery-partition-copy-usb.html on making a USB Recovery boot stick. this will allow you to boot without DVDrom. It's a little complicated though.

    Solved Can't get to BIOS - goes directly to Win boot

    Try using a Win8 recovery CD boot disc which should give you the options to open BIOS instead of going through the recovery process.

    can't turn off bluetooth

    That's one of the things that annoys me about seemingly every MS OS since XP. In order to shut one thing down, you have to go through twelve different menus and options. What I would suggest is going through your Task Scheduler and look for all instances of Bluetooth and make sure that you go...

    Solved Cannot connect to internet anymore

    Before you switched to the Router/Modem, were your PC settings for DHCP enabled? Is your "server" a "Desktop PC"? If so, I would suggest changing your network card to a different slot. If that doesn't work try that network card on a different computer to make sure that it works properly...

    Cannot Re-Size Windows to Larger Size

    I apologize. I must be thinking of an older Win or something. I just checked and it's not there on Win8.0. I would suggest you try and open a window, preferably a shortcut link to an existing folder, not the My Computer drive listing, and resize as big as you want. Do not open any folders...

    Solved Data Recovery After Partition Resizing, chkdisk Deletes
