you could always try running a repair on it. vista seems quite good at this. simply boot off the windows vista install cd, and choose the repair option. it then goes off and checks previous restore points, then restores one, and reboots.

Try hitting F8 during start up and choosing safe mode then doing a system restore from the accesories and system tools menu and choose a date prior to the fault.

The other way is the edit the registry from within safe mode but isn't for the faint hearted.

Cheers
