Hi again.
You are not going to be able to recover the system without the CD as there is no recovery partition for that model Dell machine.
You can purchase a recovery disk at minimal cost to yourself from here>>>>>>

I know this is not the answer you were looking for but this is the only option you have at this moment in time.
Good luck and thanks for using FixYa!!
The only way you can roll back your operating system w/out a CD is acroos a network, obtain another copy of home premium from a P2P connection or other source. If still under warranty, you can write\call the manufacturer and perhaps they will send you a copy. Another possibility is if you were running a dual boot, you can remve the references to vista ultimate from your bootini file. If you did not have a dual boot, then your only option is to obtain another copy of home premium, you cannot roll back to a previous OS
