Is it a question or a statement?

If it is a statement, you got it.

If it is a question, then you need to make the restore CD/DVD first, then use them to restore.

People seems to type OK with letters and numbers and seems to have difficulties in typing punctuations.

FWIW, my 1-year old Dell Inspiron laptop came with all the DVDs I need; there are no 'restore' discs to make.

I haven't actually looked at the discs, but they seem to be installation discs rather than restore discs.

The laptop was purchased with Vista Home Premium installed.

Dave, that is exactly correct...the recover discs for Vista is simply a DVD with Vista on it. At least that is all I have seen so far in about 30 I have worked on..But it is specific to the computer it came on...therefore it activates right away.
