   I've reinstalled Vista from that special partition, which works pretty well.   
   And if I understand well, the recovery disks I made should be able to do the   
   same from there. But I still have issues. I can't seem to properly run   
   Bioshock, which either hangs or plays in the top left part of the screen   
   instead of using the full screen. That's only one of a few games I've tried   
   so far.
