OS/Alureon.E and accdently deletad my master boot record.
I have the 3 recovery disks I made when first getting laptop and Vista disks but cannot get anythig to boot from

Memory and hard disk tests passed.

Hi Gary,
This may help with the MBR.
Here are a couple of links for that MBR fix to help you along:
sevenforums - Windows 7 - Fix MBR
The discussion includes graphics to help illustrate the "how to" and links to other tools to help with the recovery of the MBR.
The following document is also mentioned as a source:
Bootrec.exe tool in the Windows Recovery Environment – Repair Startup Issues - MBR
Good Luck!
