Hi,
I was wondering if there is any way I can do a clean reinstall of Windows 7 on my laptop without the original installation disk. When I bought my computer (it's an HP Pavilion notebook, if that helps,) it came with Windows pre-installed, so I don't have a disk. At some point, I partitioned my hard drive so I could dual-boot it with Ubuntu-- that was great for my personal use, but now I want to sell my computer, and I'd like to re-install Windows and wipe out everything else on my hard drive. Can it be done?
