I would recommend you calling HP, did your netbook come with any discs, or possibly a recovery partition? And yes, I know, netbooks don't come with CD drives, but I know Acers give operating system discs with theirs, just in case something happens. Depending on what HP says, it might be a good idea to take the hard drive out of the computer, hook it up to another computer with an enclosure, and recover the data that way.
