Well, why would you want to go back to Vista? Vista is garbage when put side to side with Windows 7. Anything you can do on Vista, you can do on Windows 7, and it's more stable with more features. I don't see any reason you'd want to downgrade to an inefficient PoS.

Um, if your computer came with a disc to restore it to factory settings, you could always set your bios to boot from the CD drive first and try that disc. A lot of Dells and such have recovery partitions so if you have a Dell, look into how you can boot to that.

You could either use the built-in option on your computer, and get all of the crap that comes with it (FREE Virus Scanner, FREE "Extras") or find what's called an OEM CD. It's essentially Vista but allows you to use your OEM keys. It's 100% legal.

Look around a certain "sites" to find them. You just need to make sure it supports Dell.

Lmao, you really don't know what you're talking about. Not all OEM discs are Vista buddy, learn your st00f.

Also, I believe HP has a recovery partition and has the program on the computer to make a recovery disc from the partition. I recommend doing so.
