If you have Vista DVD...

If you don't have Vista DVD...

1. Create Vista Recovery Disc.

Option 1:

Option 2:
Download Vista Recovery Disc iso image: http://neosmart.net/...-disc-download/
Burn it to CD, or DVD: http://neosmart.net/... to a CD or DVD

2. Boot from created disk.
At first screen click on Repair your computer:

This will bring you to a new screen where the repair process will look for all Windows Vista installations on your computer. When done you will be presented with the System Recovery Options dialog box:

After this, it will present you with a list of options including startup repair, system restore and command prompt:

Try System Restore, first.
If that doesn't work, try Startup Repair.

Okay I did all that and when it said to load driver it wasnt there so i have to manually find the driver can u tell me where it is and wen i browsed its looking for a file Setup Information can you tell me where this is located?

[Broni]

when it said to load driver

At what point? I'm not sure, what you're referring to.

Did you use Vista DVD, or Recovery Disc?

[thekid149]

I used the recover disk and the part right before the startup repair where u havve to load drivers

[Broni]

Oh, you mean, no Vista installation is listed?

[thekid149]

yea where can i find it because i can browse it i tried without the vist installation and it didnt work

[Broni]

Well, if Vista installation is not listed, then it looks like Windows are messed up.
I see no other option, but reinstall.

[thekid149]

and to do that i need a vista home basic dvd right man! well is there a way to back up my files and can i install home premium over home basic and which torrent site is the best?

[Broni]

which torrent site is the best?

Don't even ask. We don't help here with any illegal activities.

If hard drive is OK, you can backup your data by slaving the hard drive in another computer, or by using USB hard drive enclosure.

To reinstall Vista, you can use recovery CDs (which should came with your computer), or recovery partition.
What computer brand, and model is it?

[thekid149]
