Your system spec say it's a home built machine. Do you want to re-install Vista? If you want a clean install of Vista or Windows 7 just slap that disk in and format and re-install. That will be "factory"....your factory from when you built it.

Boot the install DVD, select Custom install, then use drive tools to Delete, repartition and format before install.
 
Thanks thought that how you done it,,the hdd i using was from a ready made pc which has vista ,,but found out you could do a fresh clean install even with the upgrade windows 7 .so i went for that
