What program to get?
Bought a used computer tower and need to wipe drive and re-install a windows program. Is this possible? What do I need to know about the tower, compatibility and what Windows program to purchase?
Yes you can wipe your hard drive and reinstalled your Windows OS.
You need to know your hard drive capacity (for example, 20, 30 or more gigs of space), your RAM of memory (e.g., 1 gig or 2 gigs), and graphic card capabilities.
Get into Microsoft website and download the Vista comparability software and run it, it will tell you if you if your computer can be upgraded to Windows Vista or not. If not, stick to Windows XP.
The alternative, take your tower to Best Buy computer department to take care of these issues for you. Best Buy has some affordable and professional services to meet every customer needs satisfactorily.
