So, I just run this CD and then type in the words or will a program pop up and I type it in there...? Sorry just a little confused.

LiveCD it is independent system on DVD (here MEPIS linux).Make sure your boot options in BIOS are set to (CD-ROM,C,A) if settings are OK,boot this livecd then it will load neccessary drivers to memory and then appear logon screen,you will choose login root/password:root and then you'll already logged (image below)
Go to My Computer>>Storage Media>> <yoyr disk> >>Windows\LOGS\CBS and remove all files in this folder.
Next restart computer,take out livecd and boot into Vista,run cmd.exe with administrative previlliges (right click on cmd.exe as admin) and type:
sfc /scannow

Ah wait I do have another question... is it supposed to say "Linux" on it, did I download the right version? I downloaded Mepis cd 32. Sorry about all this I just want to make sure I'm doing it right. I know like nothing about computers and I don't want to mess mine up by making a mistake.

Linux 32 is surly correct version for you.
Linux 64 you can only use if you have 64bit CPU.

Edit again: Okay, I thought I had it figured out but I didn't. It gives me this error.:
Could not write root/local/share/Trash/Files/CBS.log
Disk is full.
When I saw it I thought it meant that my trash can was full so I had to empty it. I did. Even though my trash can icon says its still full. Weird. I hope that I accidentally deleted my trash can before has nothing to do with it. I deleted the icon off my desktop by mistake in the past but I thought I had restored it.

In LiveCD choose "Delete" option (don't move to trash)
Besides you have to realize Trash from MEPIS have nothing to Recycle Bin in system on hdd! Although I admit option "move to trash" should also work,I can't explain exactly why this option failed -it would be caused by too big file,corrupted file.If "Delete" option will fail too I would start to suspect any issue with hdd.In this case run check disk on bootup (METHOD I ,select all) http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67612-check-disk-chkdsk.html
FYI:
Trash on MEPIS is stored in temporary RAMDrive (temporary disk in memory),when you unload Livecd ,RAMDrive disappear as well.Recycle Bin from Vista it is unvisible special folder on each partition $Recycle.Bin

I got that same message though I succeeded in deleting the CBS log in the folder. I checked the CBS folder again and there was a log there... so I'm going to post it and see if its what you're looking for.

You forgot run sfc /scannow command again because when I filter your log for looking "[SR]" char filtered log is empty

I didn't forget. I still somehow got the same error about a thing pending even though I succeeded in deleting all the files in the CBS folder. When I restarted and logged into windows that file was there. Should I just continuously delete them in Linux until I don't see it anymore?

Any laptop? That you have double trouble
...use system restore but choose any older check point http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/76256-system-restore-undo.htmlIf you don't have correct checkpoint for you only leave Microsoft Support
(apart OS reinstallation of course

It sucks my system deletes my restore points for some reason... how do I reenable trusted installer? Its not able to check for updates. I'll check my dads laptop or something and see if we have the same kind of vista. Thanks so much.
