you may have to start the cmd window as administrator. If you don't ask it to it will open it without admin priveledges, and a lot of times it won't allow files to be created. Just hit the start menu button, type in cmd, right click the program shortcut and click run as administrator. Then try running the hldsupdatetool and install srcds.

Priveledges on vista can be a pain sometimes.

it sounds like u have installed it are you trying to open the scrds or the update tool? that may be your problem that its installed and your just not using the right icon(im not calling you stupid but vista can sometimes be a pain...in ways like that not telling you its done or soemthing)
