    Just put the windows disk in and reboot, it will ask if you want to load from cd say yes, from there the menus are prety user friendly, select re-install windows

    Reboot means to power off and back on the system. Restart means something similar. What I think you want is to restore your system to the wayt it came from the factory. If that's what you mean you need to boot to your Recovery CDs.
