I was using bootcamp to try to install Windows Vista and Dual Boot. Somehow, it ended up wiping out os x and putting a fresh copy of vista on the computer. It starts up to vista. I put in the apple recover cd and it will not even recognize it. Even when I restart. What to do??

Are you 100% certain OS X got wiped? If you've installed the drivers, go to Control Panel and look for something called Startup Disk. Run that and see if OS X is an option. If so, then boot into it.

If this isn't the case, then you're obviously going to need to do a fresh install of OS X. Pop in your disc, restart the computer, and hold the C key as it boots. It should boot from the disc.
