Dell 560 purchased in Nov 2011. &nbsp;Used only a few hours until now. &nbsp;The question concerns the D:/CD/DVD Drive. &nbsp;This drive is labeled &nbsp;Recovery (D:) as the primary directory and sub folders as Dell and recovery. &nbsp;The folder Dell has a sub folder Image containing a file called factory.wim<br />
<br />
I've never experienced this sort of deal. &nbsp;My shabby experience recalls Recovery done from a hidden partition.<br />
<br />
My Laptop from Dell and is running &nbsp;same version of Windows 7 &nbsp;and no confusion there..<br />
<br />
Is this normal? &nbsp;I don't remember this from Nov-Dec 2011. &nbsp;Maybe it's just me.

CD/DVD DRIVE

A desktop computer is a personal computer designed for use at a single location due to its size and power requirements, usually by one person. The most common configuration has a case that houses the power supply, motherboard, disk storage (usually one or more hard disk drives and optical disc drives); a keyboard and mouse for input; and computer monitor and printer for output. The case may be oriented horizontally and placed atop a desk or vertically and placed underneath or beside a desk.
