bobbaggio · 2012-01-25 16:11:37

I want to reformat my hard drive, but I don't have a copy of windows vista on a CD, I am us DBAN to erase everything from the hard drive.... is there anywhere I can download (legally) a copy of vista, as I already own it, I will just be erasing it, and reinstalling it? Thanks

I might be able to give you a copy IF you send me a photo/snapshot of your COA (with last block masked) !
Also,i will consider upgrading to Win7 or downgrading to XP as Vista was a nightmare on a bad hardware spec !
