Where can I find key for business to Vista pre-installed on my laptop?

Where can I find key for business to Vista pre-installed on my laptop?  Yes, I have a legal authenticated copy of Vista business on my laptop.  I recently had to reinstall everything on my laptop, but had some problems using the backup disks that I initially created for this purpose.  I finally managed to do it, but it would be so much easier in the future if I had a with key correct installation disc.  So, first of all, where can I download an Installation of Vista Business disc; and second, where I look on my current laptop installation to determine the key authenticated for my current installation?  Is this possible?

Hello

Many manufacturers of computers DO still have available Vista recovery discs.

There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

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:

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:

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.
