Repair without install DVD possible?

I have an HP notebook with Vista Home Premium and after running SFC I have a
few corrupted files.

Question is there a way to bring in the original files when the OEM didn't
send an install DVD or will offer one at all?

All I have is the recovery partition with the option to "repair to original
factory condition" which from what I gather means erasing all my settings and
personal files.

I have made a recovery disc (from the partition) and I have the "Anytime
Upgrade DVD," and I'm curious is there any way to access the upgrade DVD to
get to those files or even do a real repair of Vista without losing settings
and personal files?
