Answer 1

OS could be messed up. If XP, try this self repair that is just like a clean install but of shorter duration and keeps ALL your files INTACT:

Answer 2

Without the recovery disk, you are out of luck. Only solution would be to purchase a copy of an Operating System, and install fresh after formatting the hard drive. You will then need to head to the manufacturers site to get drivers for your hardware, such as video, modem, sound, etc.

Answer 3

What exactly does it say you need to uninstall? What OS is it? Does it do the same thing if you try and boot to a DOS prompt?
Is the machine your using to post this question nearby? Is it the same OS?
I would like to help but need to know these things.
As far as "resetting" your computer, if your talking about reinstalling the OS, there are repair options available.
E me if you want my help.
