Hi,

First, there is no repair install function in Vista. You'd basically have to
reinstall to the same volume, and the old installation would be moved to a
windows.old folder. If it originally installed as S:, then there is no
reason that the drive letter should affect the user accounts. Did you
attempt to alter the drive letter via XP?
