    Hello, I got a laptop recently with Vista on it and it was fine, but the guy who owned it before downloaded a Vonage CD as well as a AOL CD, so the computer is riddled with ads. I do not have the Vista boot disk, so was wondering wondering if there was a way to restore Vista completely like a boot disk restore, without the disk.

    any help would be appreciated,
    Silver

    also check for system recovery on the post screen before it goes into windows i think using the f10 or f12 button.
