Hello to everyone,

I am having a problem with my dell inspiron 530s intel core2 to make a long story short, my computer kept stalling so (stupid me) I thought by wiping out everything on my computer and install fresh copy of vista home prem, then upgrade to vista ultimate. Nope I did a dirty install, how can I make this install a clean one. Please Help...... :huh:

Probably easiest if I just let you read this. It's a good one.

Does this still work in 2010?

I have Windows XP Media Center Edition currently installed. Computer is completely messed up and just want to do a format and reinstall.

(I received a free Vista Install CD from Microsoft more than a year ago - through Dell Computers)

I did not need to do this. I was able to do a full new install right from the CD. I had the "MS Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 to Windows Vista Home Premium Edition Express Upgrade".
