Well the drivers cd is needed at the end to install your drivers...Nero is burning to CD s.w so you can ignore that one. The CD you need is a PRCD oem (product recovery cd)

The basics on install is thus:
insert PRCD Vista
Tap F12 on power on and on boot menu option choose DVD drive as first boot device
"press any key to boot from cd..." SO PRESS A KEY....Boot from the PRCD
Select language, INSTALL NOW
Agree to licence and custom advanced install
Disk 0 patition 2 SYSTEM - Select DRIVE OPTIONS ADVANCED (bottom right)
Choose Delete on all partitions showing.
Then Click New, Apply and Choose Format..
Click Next ....The rest is automated process. Follow the onscreen prompts.

The machine will reboot several times if it pops up "press any key to boot from cd..." do not touch a key

If you need to purchase a PRCD you may be able to via https://ts.fujitsu.com/recovery/

hi sabrex,thanks for your great info,ive checked on that link you said but when i put the serial number in it came up invalid for some reason,ive just rang pc world in my area and they said they could do a system restore on the v5535 for £29.99 GBP so i think that will be my best bet as it sounds a good price,thanks again,best regards
