If the disc you're talking about is the windows anytime upgrade disc, they it should work. If you can't boot from it, download that Vista Repair Disc ISO I posted in my previous post, burn the image onto a CD and boot from that.
Ive tried that to no avail. I phoned HP and proceeded to talk with them for 1.5 hours in which they went over things ive tried already (other than removing and putting back in the hard drive) and they've confirmed my thoughts: My hard drive is dead/will not boot, hence I need a new one and they're replacing it cause Im still under warranty.
