Default Recovery Drive Gone

Hi--
After some major problems with my system, I had to perform a complete
reinstall of Vista. The folks from Dell talked me through it. But now,
in my My Computer window, where it used to show my 2 hard drives plus
the Recovery Drive, it no longer shows the Recovery Drive. I was
relatively sure that space was partitioned off of my C drive, but it's
not showing up. there's a possibility that a technician hid it while
remotely accessing my system. Is there a way for me to check? And if
there is no Recovery Drive, how much should I worry (it sure didn't help
me LAST time the computer needed restoring)? I am planning to get an
offsite backup a la Carbonite or an external drive for backups soon. For
all I know, that makes the Recovery Drive a moot point anyway, but I'm
not sure.
