Besides, a clean reinstall is better than getting a new computer with today's factory bloatware larded in.
Reinstalling Windows 7 if this is were my own PC i could just do what you recommended; so if there is really no way to clean this PC, then i may have to also recommend a clean re-install to the Health Inspector.
just to prepare myself, will the recovery option during post-boot do the trick or do i need to have an OS disk (cd/dvd) on-hand. it is my understanding that a clean install will mean re-formatting the hdd which will require creation of data backup first. please advise further.
thanks a lots and God Bless,
