ok, i fixed the recovery disk problem, it was missing something i guess, made a new one and it worked fine.
but ive ran it 3 times now repairing it and it wont fix the missing driver, and none of the safe modes, or any mode will work.
i have stardock installed but its been on there for a while now and had no problems with it, the only thing i could think of is that i installed nero 8 on it and i let it restart and boom! i got the missing deiver error message.
the only thing i can think of doing now is doing a system restore or run the vits install and install the upgrade. but, not sure how, or if you can do the restore without having to run windows.
