    Saved everything I wanted before the attempt to reload Vista, I expected the reload to clear everything from the harddrive

    Turn off computer
    boot during boot press cntrl and then quickly and many times hit F11
    If that does not work try the same with f8. It should restore you to factory specs.
    Your stuff will be lost.
