The computer will either have:
a) A recovery partition on the hard drive that can be accessed by following instructions in the user manual.
b) using the CD's that may have come with the computer when it was first purchased.
or c) Using the recovery disks the computer would have nagged you to make when you first got it.
Any of those methods should enable an installer that will reinstall windowsIf at first you don't succeed; do something else.0 -
