I've managed to use the Recovery Disk and this is the message I see now when I try to Reinstall Windows:

Windows cannot open the required file E:\Sources\Install.wim. The file does not exist.

How do I find this file? Next step...please

Are you using a Vista Recovery disk that NeoSmart Technologies provided online? If you are, this is only useful to get into the Vista recovery environment and correct any errors in your current Vista installation. However, this disk does not contain any installation files and CANNOT be used to reinstall windows.
