@ubahkira “Disc Read Error means you don’t have any operating system on your computer. Try to restart your computer, then boot it from the cd. Then install a clean operating system from the disc and you should be fine.
-_-! Because he failed to mention that my comp is now screwed up and is stuck on “Disc Read Error. Please press ctrl + alt + del to restart” Please if you ca help me fix this because evrytime I restart it keeps going back
Ok, so I just watched this video and this looks pretty straight forward but I have 2 things that are really doing my head in… First of all… I dont have any discs that came with my laptop, it came with vista pre installed. Now, I have 2 drives called… Vista (C:) which is my main drive and System (S:) which is like 1.4 gig. If I format my C drive which is what I wanna do, am I then gonna lose Vista or what? If anyone can help me with this then that would be great. Thanks.

If window vista is in drive c and you going to format drive c then vista will be remove. Everything you format will be erase 4ever.
