With Vista you can put the CD in while Vista is running and then choose
Upgrade.
It will refresh all the files but keep all your settings, installed
programs, emails, etc.

THe "Recovery disk" must be run from CD drive at boot. Keep in mind it
"restores" the computer to the condition when purchased.

Win PE (Windows pre-environment OS) is a "lite" OS version which initiates
the restore (and in legit Vista repair) function.
