How did you lose the operating by mistake? Did you format the drive?
You can not recover the operating system from the bios. But you may have a choice when the computer boots up there may be a recovery option, you can try that. If not you would have to reinstall or try a repair from a vista disk if you can borrow one from someone. Please let me know if I can offer any other help, Thanks for using FixYa
Hi,
While using the recovery disk in your Sony VAIO laptop computer, you
need to ensure lot of things. Firstly you need to disconnect all the
peripheral devices that connect with your computer. Make sure that the
computer is configured to boot from the CD/DVD ROM and then insert the
recovery disc in the drive. Allow the system to boot from CD/DVD. You
need to choose the option to recover the system without formatting your
hard drive.
View the step by step instructions on the below link page. Select the Restore C drive option to perform recovery and restore computer to its factory settings.
Note: The Complete system restore option should be and can be selected only while using the recovery discs.

As you turn on the laptop, hold down the ALT button while pressing the F10 button. As long as the recovery partition hasn't been touch or been altered, it should take you into a Sony Factory Restore where you can restore your laptop back to factory defaults.
If this doesn't work then you'll need to find a windows vista cd and install the operating system. Then go to Sony's website and download the hardware drivers for your laptop. Lastly install the software you'll want to use.
Yes you can recover the OS. just try to repair it the OPERATING SYSTEM. insert the OS CD INSTALLER on the CDROM/CDRW/DVDRW DRIVE and just follow the instructions. until you can encounter wat are you going to do, either you REPAIR IT or NEW FRESH INSTALLATION, you choose REPAIR.. Thats all.. And just wait until it will finish...
