    I as well lost my recovery cds, BUT Don't WORRY THERE IS A CURE!

    When the PC boots you must press umm either F12 or F11.. try all the F keys

    And it will invoke the Sony Recovery App and will restore default programs/format your PC to how it originally was :) No need for the recovery cd when one is built into the PC already hope I helped

    It seems this model has software to create a set of recovery discs by using:
    VAIO® Recovery Wizard software VAIO® Control Center

    If a set of recovery discs were not 'made', you may need to purchase the recovery discs for the laptop

    You can check link below for some support options
    Sony eSupport - VGN-FS640/W - Contact Support

    You can choose to contact Tech Support to confirm this and purchase recovery discs if need be
