    Obviously you need a disk or flash stick to reinstall.

    Factory Recovery is the worst possible instAll of Win7.

    Clean Reinstall is the best possible install one can have.

    An SSD is a chip in place of a mechanical hard drive so is lightning fast like RAM

    Oh okay, then I'll ask my brother if I can borrow some DVDs :) he has alot.
    If I do clean reinstall, wil my computer be working again?
    Wow technology is advancing, people are no longer using hard drives? How much is an SSD?

    Prices are coming down. You can find them for as low as $50 per 128gb. Many pair them with data HD.

    If you will read Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 it explains all if this. Please ask your questions after you read it.
