Download a Windows Vista Recovery Disc

18vistarecovery01 Download a Windows Vista Recovery Disc

Most new computers these days come with windows Vista installed. Most of these computers don’t come with any kind of Windows Vista disk. Some may come with a recovery disk but they are bad news as most recovery disks will delete all your files and restore your computer to the state it was in when you first purchased it.

Windows Vista DVD’s come with a recovery center to allow you to fix operating system related problems. If you do not have this DVD, Microsoft have made a recovery disc for this purpose.

Please Note: This disc cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista.

Below are two links to a file that you can burn to a CD.  How to burn an ISO image to CD or DVD (the guide shows how to burn Windows 7 to an ISO, but any ISO may be used.)

Download Windows Vista Recovery Disc (from NeoSmart technologies) (120 MiB)
Or Download Windows Vista Recovery Disc Torrent

    if you have a second license, you can get a torrent of Vista (make sure you read the comments before downloading.) If you don’t have an extra license for your second computer, then I can’t help, sorry.

    I attempted to dual boot xp with vista preinstalled. Needless to say, I was not successful. I am getting a black screen with a blinking cursor. I have been trying to trouble shoot for two days and I cant figure out whats wrong. I downloaded the Vista Recovery disc and the Startup Repair could not detect a problem. Please Please help!

    [...] the ‘repair’ option. The repair option repairs startup problems. A recovery CD does exist (See http://mintywhite.com/tech/vista/dow…recovery-disc/ ). I’m not sure whether this will cure your problem, but it is worth a try. If it doesn’t work then [...]

    Hi,
    Everyone seems to link to this neosmart site. I have downloaded utorrent and got it working to find out that it kind of works at neosmart, it is flaky. I would like to see a site that did a straight download, so that people like myself don’t have to play jerk around to get the ISOs.
