How do I reinstall Windows Vista when I can't log on due to a forgotten password?

I got a new Dell laptop. It has only one user account, which is mine. I put a password on it and then went on vacation...when I returned home I had forgotten the password. The computer is so new that there is very little downloaded on it. I would just like to reinstall and start over..but cannot log into the computer. Any suggestions?

use the recovery partition or the cd that came with the laptop



usually at the POST screen, it is like ALT-F10 or something like that. then it will go into the recovery mode

You dont need to login to reinstall vista. Just put the disk in and restart the pc. It should boot up and you will have to configure how to install it again.
