Answer 2

You need to find the Recovery Cd's that came with your pc. Put then in your cd-rom. Turn off your computer. Go to Boot Options. You need to boot off those Cd's which will allow you to reformate your hard drive. Make sure you delete the partition and then create a new one. Then you will go through a series of menus which you pretty much hit next on everyone. This will reload your Operating System. You computer will look like it did when you first bought it. Make sure you save everything you want prior to doing this because you will lose everything. I hope that helped.
