Your best bet is to let someone that knows what they are doing,do this for you. It is very hard to do this if you are not familiar with computers.

Yes, everything will be deleted and removed, and you will have to put everything back on. I am not sure if you want to try to attempt it by yourself. If you still want to attempt it, you can email me and I'll help you step by step. Oh yes, do you have an operating system disk? (ie. windows 98, windows 2000 or windows xp) If so, you can email me at [email protected]

You will need the "Boot Disk" to do this. A boost disk is the disk with the operating system on it, such as Windows XP or Windows 2000. If you have the disk then place it into your computer and run the disk, there will be an option to format. But before you do this you may want to Save some of your files, since once you format, you will not have them anymore.

Hey, I bet you know how to burn stuff, so burn all the stuff you need on a CD. And use the windows CD that came with your computer to reformat it, it should have an option. But if your still young and aer not to sure on how to use a computer you should ask a parent or older sibiling...or get a technican to do it, they don't charge that much anymore!

Well, you can't format your computer, but you can reformat your hard drive. And yes, everything will be deleted. I suggest getting anti-malware tools and disk cleaning tools to run on your system. Or, go buy a new hard drive, take out the old one, re-install the OS on the new one, and then you have a all your stuff on the old one and can swap drives whenever you feel like doing this.

May be much easier to clean it. You will lose EVERYTHING if you format including your drivers that make your PC work. If you don't have a reformat disc from your manufacturer that is pretty hard. If you do, that's easy. You just stick the CD in and reboot your PC. But that puts your PC back to the day you bought it. You lose EVERYTHING. To clean it go to www.filehippo.com Download CrapCleaner (CCleaner) Run it Go to START > CONTROL PANEL > ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS Remove the programs you no longer want. Back at File Hippo, Download AdAware Spybot Run those If you don't have antivirus, download AVG All of the above are free Those will clean your PC of 99 percent of the junk out there.

Open up "my computer" and right click your harddrive. Then click on format. Follow the steps and enjoy! You better have your original software on a disk before you do this though.
