Hello there.

I have had a lot of problems with my computer lately, and you guys have tried solving a couple of them, but nothing worked :)
Anyways, i need to install vista again. My dad is coming home from russia in 10 days with a CD, but i would like to do it before that.
Anyways, i noticed a partition called WinRE that was created when i bought my computer.
Google.com said that it was for recovering vista and even reinstalling it.
Anyways, i am currently running Windows 7.
So, the question for you guys is:
Will the WinRe programs work for reinstalling Vista without already having Vista installed? Because i am afraid that it will try to recover Vista, not knowing that Windows 7 is installed and things will just **** up.
So will i be able to just run this program on the partition, and then install Vista over windows 7?

Hope for some quick answers, since you guys are always so nice and helpful when im in trouble :D

Yes, that's why we keep asking people to not write with "SMS speak".

Anyway, read about WinRE here.
