The installer can be found at the addy above.

Do a clean install with a format. Only install the devices that windows installs on its own. Install chip set drivers. Install windows installer. Install remaining drivers. Install apps.

If your drive is bigger than 6 gigs (I would hope so) Whack out a c: partition that is about 4 gigs and put windows there. Use the rest of the drive for files and apps.

Thank you Thermodyne for your post. I'm afraid this might be too daunting for me, which is unfortunate because I think my computer could use it.

I hate to trouble you with this request, but is there a Web site that would contain a precise and simple-to-follow guide?

TIA

Here is a URL that came up after a Google search for: install windows howto

I skimmed the first few pages of this one, and it seems pretty thorough.

How to install from scratch

Hope this helps.
