Vista - no luck rebooting

help I've got no way to reboot tried everything contacted gateway microsoft they just say put in disk (that I don't have). What do I do? I can't download it to this comp no way to burn it on disk. tired of Vista already thinking of telling microsoft to go to h,,, . and just installing inbutu.

Get access to another computer and make a recovery disk.
Create a Recovery Disc

microsoft and gateway both told me a recovery disk will not do . It has to be an original installation disk.

also the comp that has vista on won't boot at all
the comp I'm using has XP on it. with just cd burner

well If anyone cares. I finally got this computer to reboot vista. What I did is: I only have an XP disk so I put it in and it started to run. it ask me something about
the partition. I let it run then it said something about replacing what was on the C: drive, so I tried to go back to the first screen. and I realised that I wasn't going to get there so I pulled the disk out and put it back in. It started to load again and I decided to pull it. it just started to install the sp1 and started up after it was done. PROBLEM SOLVED.

Thanks for sharing. A very unusual way of fixing your problem. But as you say, it seems to have worked fro you. Glad you got it fixed, Good Luck with it. You might want to run checkdisk and SFC/scannow to see if anything else that may be screwed up can possibly be fixed.
Check Disk - chkdsk
System Files - SFC Command
