I am currently running Windows Vista, but i had to reformat my hard-drive. I pressed F8 at the startup and went to 'Repair your Computer' instead of showing the lists of options, an account called 'Other User' appears. When i click it it comes out a username and password box. Anyone know how i can solve this?
If you reformatted your hard drive you would not have a repair option. You would need to reinstall your operating system completely.

How do i do that? My computer came with Windows Vista and it didn't come with the OS's disc.
Edit:
I Have reformated twice before and it all worked out fine.
You have to have a disc to reformat.
Reformatting is erasing everything on a drive. What you are probably doing is a restore or something.
Or you can see if you can spot a serial key on your computer and use somebody else's CD and then use your own key.

I'm actually trying to restore the PC back to factory settings. It's been 3 Years since i bought this PC and i don't think i can find a serial key and btw i had to restore because when i woke up today after i logged in my user it gave me a BSoD.
Oh, in that case, you should go to the computer restore place when you boot up. It should be all in there.
At least this was on my old computer.
