Angrist · 06-11-2002, 03:44 PM

Our laptop was shipped with Windows ME, but no cd. So all the stuff is installed on the laptop (2GB:eek: ) and you can't format the HD (well you don't want to do it).

There came a 'recovery CD' with it. It says it is to bring the laptop into it's original state.

Do you think that's the way to clean up our laptop and have a 'clean' HD with only Windows and the neccesairy files? On the paper that comes with the disk it says it has Windows 98 on it...

Oh wait, why not try the CD and see what the readme says...

In the meanwhile, is anyone of you familiar with this?? Thanks.
