• You need to reinstall Windows XP. Do I need the CD of the motherboard?

  Hello

  someone gave me a computer with some virus on it. I want to wipe the hard drive and install xp. Here's the question-have I need motherboard cd (which I don't have) for installation? or can I just put the xp cd in and then finished?

  the mb cd would not have the bios or other important things on that I might need?

  any info will help you.

  Thank you... pat

  (it is a different computer from my other post).

  You can install XP from installing XP, but you need to maybe go online with another computer and download the network drivers (put it on a USB key) and install those first. From there, you can do just that with the new PC. You can visit the Web site of the manufacturers of drivers for everything.

  Most, if not all, stuff on the CD are available online. It's just get online which can be the first hurdle.

• You need to reinstall Windows XP Media Center.

  Original title: my MS answers forum.

  I try a clean reinstall of my Acer ASPIRE running MS WIN XP MEDIA CENTER VERSION 2002 SP3. When the PC was purchased the first task was to burn 2 DVD. Now I can locate the Acer E-recovery on the PC but don't want to save the data, simply create a CD or access to the recovery options. Y at - it an App on the DVD that has them, I can see STCDBOOT. ISO 119.170 FILE WinZip, which is. Was told to start with the DVD on the tray, of no use and start holding the key pressed ALT and pressing F10 does not. Any suggestions would be really appreciated! BRITISH COLUMBIA

  Hi BeeCees,

  ·         You have the two blank DVDs you have burned when you got the computer?

  ·         The Acer E-Recovery software does not give an option to clean install without saving the data?

  I recommend you contact Acer support for instructions on how to reformat their PC using the Acer E-Recovery software without migrating their data on.

• I need to reinstall Windows Vista to do a reinstall of Windows 7 upgrade?

  I have an Alienware Area 51 750i. He is initially provided with windows Vista but had a free upgrade to windows 7. My hard drive has acted lately and I think to replace. I have to buy a new drive for windows 7 or I can use my old copy and install it on the new hard drive. The computer came with a Windows Vista recovery disk and also the disk to upgrade to windows 7. Thank you

  You can reuse your Windows 7 license on the new hard drive. You need to reinstall Windows Vista on the new hard drive, and then perform a custom installation of Windows 7 during installation of Windows Vista. You may need to reactivate by phone:

• Brand new laptop does not come with disks of windows, I need to reinstall windows what/where/how do I?

  I bought 2 new laptops. Both come with Windows already... so, if I need to reinstall windows... How/where/can do?

  Hello

  For future reference, these are VISTA forums you want on the new laptops in.

  I suggest other questions about these laptops you ask in the correct Forums.

  Here are the General options of relocation for you:

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  See you soon.

• I need 2 reinstall windows vista, but have had is no longer my installation cd, cani always reinstall? __

  I need 2 reinstall windows vista, but have had is no longer my installation cd, cani always reinstall?

  How to get Vista recovery Media or the Vista recovery Partition on your computer back to factory settings.

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Ask them if you can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu
