Boot from your Windows Vista DVD, select the System Repair Option > on the
setup screen, select 'Repair Computer > Select your installation of Windows

Hi,

Consult your system documentation or contact the manufacturer regarding
their restoration procedure since you cannot load the OS nor do you have a
Vista disk. The methods used vary by manufacturer and machine.

Well, since you bought it yesterday, it must be under some warranty you can
take it back and let them get it fixed for you.

No! The motherboards will be different.

Contact the seller, and ask for it to be fixed or replaced under Warranty.

And this time make sure it comes with a Recovery DVD or OS DVD, or make one
your self from the "hidden" partition.

Unless your laptop is the same brand and model, it probably wouldn't work
anyway.
But legally, NO, you need to buy your own copy.
