It is called "reformat and reinstallation of Windows" Or if you have one of the "Big Name Boxes" using the "Restore Disks".
Guest Bob I Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Re: Is there a way to reset windows? Yes, all manufacturers MUST provide a method to restore the Windows installation to "factory new" setup. Please review the documentation that came with your laptop for the method supplied. Or contact the the manufacturers Tech Support folks and ask them.

I've read the above several times, and I *think* (but am not sure) that you want to remove everything on the computer and reinstall Windows. If that's correct, yes you can do it. How you do it depends on the particular laptop and its manufacturer. You should check with the manufacturer to find out how. By the way, why do you want to do this? In my view, it's more often a mistake than not. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP - Windows Desktop Experience Please Reply to the Newsgroup
