Basically what I am asking is, my friend got a couple of viruses that are way over my head to remove so we want to completely reinstall windows. From what I understand, the windows disk that came with his machine, and emachine, is not really a full copy of windows. So I was thinking, I could downnload a windows disk from a torrent or mirc or whatever, but use his cd key so it is legit. Do you know if this will works, or have any advice.
also I did look up how to remove the viruses which are msdirectx.sys and xz.bat but it involves searching through the registry and deleting a bunch of stuff, and that is a littl more than I want to do.
thanks in advance
