Jerry,
Thanks for the response. I want to remove and reinstall the operating
system
because i had a virus which affected the operating system. I removed the
virus but since then windows still is not working right. meaning that
sometimes when I turn on the laptop, i get an error message telling me
that
windows is not responding and will be shut down.

Your question would be answered better if you mentioned why you wanted to
remove and reinstall.
