I,ve just treated myself to Overclockers This weeks special deal on the Clevo P17oem.
So I 've sold my old msi but would like to do A clean re-install of win 7 on it before moving it on. I've never re-installed A computer with A raid 0 set up will this cause me any trouble or can i just place the windows disk in & reformat the partition :confused:

Can I be rude and ask where you sold it and how much you got for it? Will be selling my GX660R in the next 2 weeks.

Cheers

I used the restore app at bootup to factory settings.

Think u have to tap F8. Was a few mths ago I sold mine for £550

Does the factory restore really delete all of your sensitive data?

In the past I have used DBAN (Darik's Boot and Nuke) to effectively delete the contents of any hard drive before reformatting and installing a new OS.

Seems about the going price. Sold mine for 500 to my brother.

(No sibling rates for him with this sale, I sold him a car 2 years ago and took a 1'100 quid hit myself for him
