Erm, why not do clean format and reinstall the OS and the software that she needs?

Just a suggestion. Cheers.

Under big c they would wipe it clean and reinstall windows.. Helps if you have the driver disks that came with it..

Really a couple hundred baht job..

Oops, sorry.

Clean format is erasing everything from the hard disk. Totally clean, then reinstall Windows and all the drivers provided by DELL.

LivinLOS mentioned just now you can do it for a small amt outside. Cheers.

Actually its this easy nowadays:

Step 1:
Put in Windows Installation CD, wait untill it says: Press any key now if you wanna start with the Windows Installation CD (or something like that) Obviously you press the button and the installation begins.

Step 2:
You will now get to License agreement, press F8 and type in the cd key.

Step 3:
The installation will now ask you wether you wanna do a clean install, or repair, obviously you wanna do a clean install.

Step 4: Delete previous partitions for example; "C: or D:"
Once everything is deleted choose create new partition, use all disc space (easiest alternative) press enter, done!

Step5: Follow the installation, set timezone easy as pie, let the installation do the network settings for you automaticly.

Step6: Install drivers preferably the newest ones from the manufacturers website but if not with the CDs that came with the computer.

Then you are good to go!
If any problem just send over a plane ticket and ill be delighted to fix it for you

This is giving me the serious giggles.55555

Sorry Marc26...but It's one of the funnier posts I've read lately.

Just thinking of the possible ramifications, of a not so clean, clean up.

Fvck...LMAO

Careful taking it to a shop. I know here in the US they have to report any illegal downloads found, even if it is taken in to repair the keyboard. I doubt that is the case in LOS, but I would rather do it myself. I did it once already and I know almost nothing technical about computers. There should be a recovery disc with the computer. You can also call Dell support.

You should have a recovery CD with the laptop, just insert that and boot from the CD and follow the instructions on the screen, it will reset the computer back to fresh out of the factory settings.
