OK.
Preinstalled Win 8 is MUCH more of a hassle. Presumably it did not include actual install media.

There should be a function to create a factory reset set of DVD's.
Or a partition to do that.

That will wipe everything, bringing it back to how it came from the store.


Actually, you pretty much can't do that.
Uninstall "all" applications...some remnants will be left in the Windows Registry.

Again, what are you trying to do? Start over with a clean install?
What OS are you using?
 


yeah clean install. windows 8
 


Was this preinstalled, or Win 8 that you bought and installed?
 


preinstalled. thanks a bunch!!
