Hi there. To start i have a sony vaio vgn nr180e that came installed with windows vista. The system crashed and i was unaware of windows vista system restore so i tried installing a windows 7 wasnt able too becausr it kept freezing. So after several failed attempts i let a buddy put his input in and he installed windows 98. I have fiber op and cant seem to find away to get on the internet and the wifi built in the computer doesnt work since i installed 98. I have an xp and windows 7 disc dont have original vista disc. It said windows 7 is to new to uprade from 98 and the xp disc is working but during installation after the first restart it wont go any further and blue screen and msg comes up saying boot disc or hard disc error restart. When i restart i am still able to acess 98. What i need help with is there anyway saved on the computer to install windows vista again or is there any advice or help i could get with installing windows xp. Any help would be greatly appreciated im not that computer knowledgable better at carpentry skills lol.
Thanks
Jeff
