You can't get any legit copy of vista for free anywhere. What you can do is get the recovery CDs from lenovo for a small fee to fix your problem.

What do you mean you can't get in? is it asking for a product key? If there wasnt a hardware change, the product key that is on the bottom of your laptop should be working, if there was then contact lenovo and ask for a product key. why contact lenovo instead of microsoft? if your vista was pre-installed that means that you have an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacture) license and your primary support provider for any issue is Lenovo (that is if you still are within warranty) working with a MS tech would require a charge of $59/$79 + tax for OS issues. If product key is what you need and lenovo cannot provide you with that (as they will just point you to MS if they dont know what to do) you can request a lenovo rep to call MS on behalf of you, however, there might be a charge of $10 + tax
