I had my 3 week old Toshiba laptop stolen 4 days ago. My fault for
leaving it where it could be got to. No argument there!
My problem is I have the re-istaller disk and feel that as I bought
and paid for it, do I have the right to use it to upgrade my old
desktop pc and if so can it be done? As the Vista OS forms nearly a
quarter of the cost of the laptop and I am the legal purchaser of it,
can I make some use out of the situation or does the right to use it
pass on to the lowlife scumbag that stole it?

You would need to discuss the matter with the Microsoft
office in your area. Maybe if you send them a police report
they'll give you a new product code.
