There was no recovery CD for the 760CD when it was new..
they MAY have added one later on, with the P-120 version..

also, i think the 765 is different enough thast the recovery won't work
the way ibm intended it to..

best bet is to unpack the image and copy it to the HDD...

thats just my .002 cents worth.. :-)
