Windows Vista was pre-loaded on to my laptop and the security proof of licence stick is on the bottom - can I re-load it???

Answer 1：

Contact your Computer Manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of Vista Recovery disk/s.

 

They normally do that for a small $ cost.

 
Or borrow a proper Vista DVD(not Dell, HP, etc).
A proper Vista DVD contains all Vista versions.
The Product Key determines which Vista version gets installed.

There are 2 Vista disks: one for 32bit Operating System, and one for 64bit Operating System.
