Hi, have you tried reinstalling using the recovery partition?
When the Vaio boots up, start tapping F10 several times.When you see a screen:"Edit boot options", hit the Enter button on the keyboard to load the Recovery Partition. On the menu select:"Compete system restore", then on the right hand side select Start. If you are offered to do Hardware Diagnostics or Restore C:drive first, select the Skip option at the bottom and select Next.Follow the instructions to start the recovery. It takes two hours, so make sure the power adaptor is connected.
If you have formatted your hard drive or deleted the recovery partition, you have to contact Sony to get a set of recovery discs. They will probably charge you, so if you have a friend with the exactly same Vaio, use his recovery discs.
The disc you have will be the drivers disc, not the windows disc, did you not burn a set of recovery discs when you first got your pc? It should not have deleted the recovery partition from the hard drive while doing a destructive recovery; it should only have wiped the c partition and left the other alone unless you set it to do both. If your recovery partition is gone the only thing you can do is contact Toshiba and ask for a set of Recovery Discs or buy a new copy of windows.
