Errors in vista operating system and need to restore to original. I do not have the vista installation disk, but I have only the drivers & Applications DVD.
Step 1:
The first thig to do is locate the serial key if its not located on your computer you can find in the registry. http://download.cnet.com/%7Bvalue=http://www.download.com/magical-jelly-bean-keyfinder/3000-18487_4-10079600.html The Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder is a freeware utility that retrieves your Product Key (cd key) used to install windows from your registry. It has the options to copy the key to clipboard, save it to a text file, or print it for safekeeping.
Download the Windows Vista startup disk .ISO file. A .ISO file is a "disk image" file, meaning that it is a compressed archive of all the files that would normally be found on a CD contained in one simple file. Microsoft does not provide users with an official Windows Vista startup disk. Because of this, a number of services online provide their own for users free of charge. Download the .ISO (see Below) file to your computer's desktop. http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/download-windows-vista-x64-recovery-disc/ Put a blank DVD in your computer's DVD writer. Open your DVD burning program. As long as your program can burn .ISO files, you can use any software you'd like. Burn the .ISO file to a DVD by selecting the "File" menu, clicking on "Open" and locating the .ISO file from your hard drive. Next, click the "Burn" button in your DVD burning software and the files contained in the .ISO will be burned to the disk. Label your Windows Vista startup disk with a pen or marker and keep it in a place where you won't lose it. If your computer is damaged to the point where you would need a startup disk, you won't be able to use your computer to make one. It is very important that you do not lose this disk.

As I commented a few days ago, my PC is Vista 32 bit. The address you gave me for neosmart contains " /blog/2008/ ...x64". I tried changing the x64 to x32 and I get can't find "/blog/2008/". I tried 2005, 2006 and 2007 and nome worked, Can you provide me the correct address or will the x64 work?

I finally discovered that there were two different downloads and that the "86" one is the 32 bit. All completed now and again thank you for your assistance.
it can be a bit confusing 86 is 32 bit and 64 is 64 bit.If the processor value starts with "x86" then it is 32-bit. If it starts with "ia64" or "AMD64" then it is a 64-it machine.
