Hi and welcome to GeeksToGo, sorry to hear of the problem with your Vista installation.

1 What CD's are you using to install Vista...are they Genuine Microsoft Discs?
2 Why not use the DVD?
3 Did you format and reinstall or are your trying to perform a Repair install of your existing operating system
Regards
