Go to the support section on Sony's website. It may be there for you to download.

Some manufacturers allow you to make a recovery disk from the copy of Windows as it is now on your computer. It most likely will not create a factory default disk. You could call Sony to see if they sell them, but they're likely to be about £80 (about $140?)

If not, then all you can do is use something like NTi Backup Now! to make a backup of your computer, as it is now. Are you sure you deleted the factory reset partition, it is usually protected? Unless you removed it through Sony's software, or Start > Computer (right click) > Manage > Storage Devices and then deleted the partition?
 
On a side note, if you have no other option, you can always try to get your hands on a Windows Anytime Upgrade (Vista) disc (or borrow someone else's Vista Home Premium disc) and install Vista that way, using the key from the windows label on the bottom of your laptop.. this will require you to manually (call in) to activate your copy of windows, but it only takes a few minutes :)
