Probably the best option, in all honesty.

Problem is that if i run the restore disc its just gonna put norton back on again. I do still have a retail copy of vista from my last rig which i could install but toshibas website seems tha it dosent have the drivers required

The retail disk will not work as it will require a retail product key. Can you borrow an OEM disk?

I have the retail product key, its the full version purchased from a high street store

Anyhow i used the removal tool and all is now well
