How do I reinstall windows 7 professional 32 bit?
I seem to have been hit by a virus of some sort and would like to re-install windows 7 professional 32-bit to hopefully wipeout the virus and start again. I’ve tried to re-install and have gotten some error messages. I have the windows 7 information on a USB and need help to get this computer working again.
I have also tried re-installing windows XP version with a CD, system attempts to start with RAID, etc. but then get error message and it does not complete the installation. Would prefer to stick with windows 7 version I have on it now.
Would appreciate all the help I can get, really desperate here. Thanks.
