Some questions need to be asked of you. Number one do you have the original cd's for the operating system that you have installed on your computer? Number two do you need to do a complete reinstall or just a fix? It a complete reinstall is required you need to have the driver cd's for all the components on your system. If you are running a newer operating system it may find them and install them automatically. Some drivers are not available to windows directory upon install and need to be installed from the original cd's. Once you know or have this information then you can proceed with he format and install procedure that the operating cd will walk you through when you place it and it auto runs in your cdrom or dvdrom drive. Best way is to place the cd in the tray of the dvd or cd rom drive and reboot the computer and then it should ask you to boot from the cdrom or dvdrom drive upon restart. Read the information that the cd asks you and follow the steps that it wants you to take and you should be ok. Hope this info helps you.
i wouldnt go for the "recovery disc" if you can re-formatt the harddrive and re-install the operating system its way better,the recovery discs only work under certain conditions
