Need urgent help!

Hmm.
I dont think it matters on the disc as long as it's the same version as you have installed it will work to repair you problem I cant think of anything else accept re-install windows which still again needs a disc.

Damn. I restarted it and it did something new. It offered to restore the system itself. It did this for about half an hour and never fixed anything.

This is rather annoying, is there any way I can get a disk?

Only way really is to buy one, download one and burn it to disc or borrow one from someone who has the same as you.

Do you have a partition called "Recovery"? If so, when you go into the BIOS (you can get into it with either pressing DEL key or F2) then go to Boot options and select the recovery partition as first boot device and then do some recovery. After it's recovered your install go back into the BIOS and put the first boot device back to your Vista install and you should be done.

If you have any important files they will be lost though doing that method so make sure theirs no important files you remember or they'll be lost.

If you wanna backup important files get an Ubuntu live CD and boot it to copy them to a USB drive.

Err how would I find out if I had this partition?

[Flisker]

Well when you went into "Computer" when your pc was working did you see another partition next to the C:/ (OS) drive called Recovery?

[Niall!]

errrr

I can't remember.

[Berch]

It might not of been called Recovery might of had another random name if their was any partition you didn't create that's probably it.

Is there any way I could find out that I have this thing online?
