I hope you made a backup of your files before doing this. :)

Thats the point of the "recovery disk" : in some cases, you are then able to make that "damn-I'm-lucky" backup before resetting the computer to his factory settings (because that's what these disk are doing).

Then, you can schedule yourself for a long evening reinstalling all the patchs and service packs you applied between the initial installation and your crash, then reinstalling your application, then reconfiguring everything...
