Alright, this may seem like a stupid n00b question, but bare with me. Is there any way that i can completely clear my entire computer, everything, nothing spared, of all its information, and then restore it like its brand new with nothing but what came with it on it? It's getting to hard to even do anything with, movies, I cant play games, I can barly come to the forums to talk with like minded people. I wanna just clear everything, viruses included, and make it just like it was when I bought it. Is there ANY Possible way I can do this without having to take my computer into comp usa or something?

I'm running windows XP, with some kinda HP tower. I just want it like new. :banghead:

I hate technology.

Well since you have an HP computer, you probably got one of those system restore discs (I think thats the name of them). Just pop that mother in the cdrom and follow what it says. Should fix it right up.

There is a much easier way, IF you have the Win XP disc..

He's using a brand name PC, so the chances of him having that is 0 to none.

Most "newer" brand name pc's come with the disc. At least the last 467 I've seen did.
