System information inside, help on reintall of Vista requested

[Nipstudent]

I went through a long process with some very helpful people on this site to
attempt to get my Windows Media Player up and running again. It was seemingly
unsuccessful though I would like to thank all those who assisted me,
especially dean-dean.

Now we have determined that I should reinstall Vista however its not that
simple. I didn't make a recovery CD and my system came already installed. I
have a partitioned drive that I believe has all my backup info. Here is my
system info as suggested and if anyone could help me I would be very
appreciative.

Manufacturer: Hewlett-Packard
Model: a6030n
Processor: AMD Athalon 64, Dual Core
RAM: 2Gigs
System type: 32-bit OS

Is you system very old because you should have been supplied with a repair
CD at least that will run the update from your HD.

As you have an HP did you buy at PC world? if so take it back and complain.

Do you know of anyone else who might just lend you their copy?
