THE APP "DRIVER MAXX" OR "DRIVER GENIUS" CAN HELP, IF HAVE USED TO RESTRORE SOME OF FRIENDS LAPTOPS.
I THINK YOUR CAPS-LOCK MAY BE BROKEN.
Anywho, you could try to download the version you have, boot from that disk, and restore...
Most of the laptops have something like that already build in. Try F6 (or F8, don't remember which one it was, but it should say "press Fx for options" below) on boot screen, no recovery needed if that works...
If you have Vista Ultimate, you can recreate your recovery disk...
