Desktops & All-In-Ones

[Len42]

I have a 2008 Aspire M5640 computer and have installed a new hard drive. When trying to reload Windows Vista, it starts, then tells me there is a missing CD driver. It wants me to put a cd in with the driver on it, where do I get a driver from. I pulled up the list of drivers. but can't find the CD driver. I have a current copy of Windows vista with the proper key.

Please Help
