Well, for one thing, your OEM is required tonprovide you with a CD with your
PC (assuming that's what we're talking about here). They often time try to
provide "quick restore" disks. They are supposed to provide a CD.
Sometimes, however, there will be a flat directory on the PC you can point
the wizard to. (You could try using the Search feature for Windows and see
if the file it's looking for is on the PC).

Hope this helps.
