My PC is basically fcked from all the shit downloaded from kazaa, and deleting little bits hasn't helped.

Anyway, how do i do a complete system restart? i.e delete windows and everything from the computer, and then re-install it.

Are there any quick, dumbass tutorial ways through windows?

I have the Windows CD disc, but it only shows u how to install not remove.

If this makes any sense please help!

cheers
