| I recently bought a new laptop which had Windows Vista Business pre-installed, I need to reinstall it but I don't have the setup DVD. Is there anywhere to get the complete full version of Windows Vista Business as an ISO/image file or something just to burn to a DVD. I want the proper standard edition which needs activation and installing with my COA product key attached to the bottom of the unit. CAN ANYONE HELP? |

| Lurker Techie | Search around torrent sites, I'm sure one of them will have a copy. And since you already have a valid product key, there shouldn't be any worries about it being illegal to download.

| Check your recovery partition. If you do not get a DVD you get a recovery partition which has the necessary files to do what you want. there is no place to downlaod it for free legally. As CArnage said. Torrents will be the only way to go. |
