If your recovery disk is anything like the one I have, you won't get the
option to do much at all really, exept press 'Y' and 'enter' every now and
then. Everything is done automatically.
When I have reloaded windows in the past, because I'm not sure whether the
recovery disk formats the hard drive properly or not, I've formatted first
using a normal start up disk, then used the recovery disk afterwards.
This might be an option for you, as the start up disk gives you all the
partition options.
Why not load windows as normal if you run into problems,just  using the
recovery disk as a source for drivers?
Good luck
