Hold the Alt key down while using the mouse to drag the Recovery
window up. You should then see the Start Recovery button.
Using the Esc key (Escape) is suppose to close this window as well.
Are you sure you have the correct resolution set for your monitor and
video card? Sometimes setting the screen resolution too low will cause
these windows to expand beyond the screen. This seems to be a possibility
in your case.
