  Here you are options to reinstall Vista:

  Vista Media recovery obtaining and/or using the Vista recovery on your computer Partition to factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

I tried reseting the computer, but I did not eat for recovery. or a backup disk. I tried to download the recovery as some other Manager answers but it doesn't seem to work. I can't even personlize my background saying "Server Esecution failed" in everthing.

  Hello again Otaku.

  Sorry for my delay.  I was out of the office.

  It really depends on your warranty situation.  You can check the status of your warranty here.  Even if you are not in the security for costs which are incurred would be minimal, and these drives are incredibly useful to have.  Then, I highly recommend that you buy a game if you don't have any.

  Have a wonderful day!

• How can I restore my computer to factory settings so that I can give it with peace of mind about my personal information?

  I would only delete personal files.

  Hello

  Remove only the personal folders is not the way to do

  Everyone can recover with the software of data recovery and your user account name, parameters, etc rest...

  And if everyone would recommend "Dban"; who will even remove any recovery partition (which if necessary for purposes of relocation), because it deletes (as its default action) information on any hard disk that it finds in your computer and you need to reinstall the operating system.

  The way to do what you want to do is to reinstall the operating system that your header request initially (but remember the only way to know that your data is never recoverable is to physically destroy the hard drive!).

  Here are the various ways to reinstall the operating system:

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a set of recovery disks to reinstall from.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer (this is why I did not recommend the use of Dban).

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup.

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  See you soon.

• How can I reset Thunderbird so that the settings are the same as when it was first installed?

  I seem to have changed by mistake the parameters for accounts with several are no longer displayed in the way which was familiar to me.

  I struggle to describe, but although the meter displays several emails of thousands, they were not displayed unless, somehow I have manged to get the separate box the rest accounts - it is a very poor description of the problem, I hope that someone will tell me how to return things to the original default settings I had several years ago and before many updates.

  Return to in a default mail client is not a good thing... no not configured e-mail account... they were not part of the default value.

  While such an option is to hand for those who don't know and don't want to know it is not really viable for email clients where everyone has an opinion of what is somewhat critical of information don't not to get lost.
