I dug out my old desktop and decided to delete everything since it was slow and had some viruses.
The rig is an e-machine et1161-07 windows vista home premium SP1 with AMD Athlon x2 4050e processor.
I used a dvd to wipe the hard drive clean with no problems. The dvd is a Vaio windows vista recovery media for sp1, vgn-ns100e series ( for distribution only with a new Sony pc) it says as well.
When booting with the recovery dvd it brings me to the recovery tools menu but when I try to restore / install the system I get a recovery.exe - application error.
What are my cheapest options to restore this pc?
