Hi lew9789,

·         Which method did you follow to create the recovery disc?

i.           Boot the system by inserting Windows 7 installation disc.

ii.         When it gets to the main setup window, click on Repair from the lower left corner.

iii.       Select Command Prompt from the main Repair menu. 

iv.        At the command prompt type in recdisc, then ENTER.

v.          You'll get the popup to choose which drive letter to create the Recovery disc to.

vi.        Have a clean DVD in the DVD drive and select start.

This should get your System repair disc created.

    Thanks for that; Its what I eventually tried. 

    However

    When I had "Fixed" the Boot up and "Repaired", I still am unable to create a system repair disc..

    ...and....I....don`t....know....what....else....is....not...working...as it should (e.g. do I have a virus which even Malwarebytes or Norton 2013 cannot find and is cloning out all my documents everytime I am are online?

    Who knows if that is not happening to everyone with the 0x80070057 error?

    Who knows how many people could have their credit card details compromised due to such virus? issues?

    The problem is solved.  Got disks form Computer Manufacture.  Thanks all for the help.

    A solution for you is good.

    But can you make your own yet; or is it still refusing?

    I got mine off a torrent as I am out of date and don`t want to pay for something that should have worked out of the box.
