Yeah, I could get to the boot screen via an F-key and selected the cd, but it just flat-out wouldn't run it. Wouldn't even try to spin it (even though it would try other cds). I did find out that he's got a recovery drive partitioned that I can get to now that XP is on there, so maybe that will be enough to get Vista up and running again.
Thanks!
