My old laptop is now very slow performance, no doubt because it is hopelessly cluttered with unwanted stuff, viruses etc.. So I have tried various methods of cleaning without success, I decided to reformat (all data on it has been transferred to a new laptop) and start from scratch by reinstalling Windows Vista Home (installed when I bought it). But no installation disc has been delivered, although the product no key. is located on the underside of the laptop. What should I do? I could ring you, but I don't have a land line, and a long call on my cell phone would probably cost a fortune. It would be great if you were ringing me to talk me through the process (07760 101610)

Sorry, this is not Microsoft and we don't do phone calls that we are for the most part, Windows users help each other here...
Here are the different ways that you can reinstall Vista.
See which is more easy for you.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:
You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:
How to change the Boot order in BIOS:
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm
"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.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Ask them to the proper key sequence.
And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.
Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.
If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.
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
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
"How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

Valerie SGWhy you want to reinstall your PC? It could be that you don't need to reinstall Windows, and solutions you could solve, which is recommended.
However, if you want to reinstall your Windows, it's NOT F8, F8 key belongs to Windows and he'll fix the problems. To reinstall Windows, you must use differently for Dell steps:
And for more details, you could visit the Dell Web site and search for your model and find the method to do this, or contact technical support:

I wiped my pc and my windows vista. How can I get a copy, reinstall.i have the product code?
Hello
If Vista is preinstalled contact the Manufacter computer and ask them to send recovery discs; what they should do for a small fee.
And ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to reinstall the operating system to how it was when new.
If you have not deleted this partition (you tell how wipe you the hard drive!) you press F10 or F11, etc at startup to start the process of relocation.
Ask the manufacturer for their combination of button to do this, if it is always an option for you.

Windows Vista 64-bit version purchased, can 32 bits be installed with the same key?
Configure a computer for a friend using the version 64-bit of Windows Vista, not knowing its processor's crashing issues with 64 bit... would it not possible to rebuild and get a copy of 32-bit by using the same key via download or something? (I'll killdisk his computer so I'm sure it will not be saved, but I'm not sure.)
Thanks for the replies!
* original title - 64-bit version of Windows Vista purchased, has not work.__Can I install 32 bit with the same key? (Another was deleted, so it's is more approved I think). *
Hello
1. you have a 64-bit processor on your computer?
2 have you installed the correct drivers 64 bit?When you bought Windows Vista, if it came with two versions of the operating system, a 32-bit installation DVD and an installation DVD 64 bits, then you would be able to use the
same product key. Even if the 32-bit version should work with a 64-bit version of Windows, chances are the 64-bit version will perform better, because it was designed for a
64-bit version of Windows.Kind regards

Original title: Windows Update does not work on security with networking mode
Hi, if my computer has been doing the BlueScreen thing where it stops every 5 minutes when I go to normal mode. So I go on security with networking mode and I went to problem and solutions and all this stuff, and the Web site that came to help me solve the blue screen was told to go to "All programs" and then go into "Windows Update". but the problem with that is does not work! My cursor will give me the circle of loading bit for a few seconds and that's it! And don't tell me to go to because every time startup repair I have try that he asks me "User" and I tried everything and nothing will work! :/ And apparently, it's a driver problem, not a hardware problem, because I already removed and put in the back of my equipment. Then Yes.
Thanks for your help! :)
