Dunno abt Vista.
In XP,when i had the problem i would go to previous restore point.(AFAIK, there is a similar s/m in vista).Try that.

Or u can go to safe mode, and uninstall the application/driver which u had just installed.(which might have caused the problem)

Install latest vista service pack1.
This should solve your problem.
