    This has probably been posted 1000's times but the search function on here is not so great but I wish to re-install windows vista business as my computer has become really bogged down with crap.

    I have made a set of recovery cd's. I really don't know how to begin as I am completley new to Vista and have no idea where to start or to use the cd's. Just wondering if there is a "dummies guide" to installing vista on the net? Perhaps there is a thread somewhere on here that has it listed step by step.

    Any help would be great thanks.

    That depends on WHICH search function you use here. The drop down search boxes are JUNK and really ought to be scrapped (except MAYBE for the "search in this thread" one). But the search box at the very top is really good, it is a Google driven search restricted to just NBR. It even handles two character search params like XP FZ etc.
