burn onto a disc

wasup, so... I got my new laptop computer 3 weeks ago, its an acer travelmate 7514WSMi, and vista was already installed( I had to press some buttons to complete the installation) on the computer as I expected. Now, if I ever want to format and partition the computer, I will need the installation cd/dvd, and I dont have that, I only got "windows anytime upgrade" disc (whatever the hell it does). So I will now need to make a windows cd/dvd so I can install it again when the harddrive is partitioned and formated. How do I make one ? I've been all over the net and all I found was some guide to make a "recovery disc" which didnt help me at all, or I was doing something wrong...

anyway, I will need this vista disc so I can format and install it back later and I would also like to have this acer software with it that I have now... any help would be appreciated. Some link to a good guide on how to make a disc, or if someone could help me step by step.

thank you

 

If it didn't come with the recovery discs, you should have an option to create them yourself.

 

yes, thats right, now I understand, I tried to follow a guide on how to make one but I couldnt complete it... you know some good guide that could help me ? some link to a website? or someone could walk me through?

edit: and btw, also the acer software, does it come with the recovery dics?
