No. You'll need to do a clean install and make sure you install Vista where
you want it. You can format D: while you're at it.

Install the system on C: first. Once that's in then just open Computer
and right-click that drive and format.

Start,right click Computer,then click manage. Click Disc Management
under Storage, post the screen shot (attachment).
Click User CP on top of this page, go to edit system spec and fill out
as much as you can. HTH.
