| Wipe the entire drive and do a full reinstall of windows. You can nuke the drive by using ccleaner afaik. |

| You have to create a bootable usb drive with the Window ISO, you can download the Windows ISO from microsoft itself. You'll have to activate it though, but don't worry you can just use kmspico and have Windows Activated for free. If not you can just use it for 30 days I believe, with that Window's Isn't activated message |
