Ok so my little sister got some virus I've never seen before and it somehow wiped all anti-virus off of the computer. So not wanting to connect to the computer to the laptop for fear of the same virus spreading to the rest of the computers on my home network, and not being able to locate the virus and remove it manually. I took my last resort option; using F-Drive to format the C-drive. It wasn't until afterward that I found out that Acer doesn't include back-up disks for the operating system.

Basically I need to know how I can reboot from the D-drive so that I can restore Vista and get my sister to quit nagging me about it. Can I get a walk through on how to do this.
