- Did you backup all information on your hard disk drive?
- Although most current operating systems have driver support for most hardware have you made sure you have the diskettes/CD’s for your computer hardware devices so you can reinstall the hardware after erasing everything?
- If you are reinstalling Windows 98 or lower do you have a boot disk?
- Have you tested the boot disk or bootable CD to make sure it loads properly?
- Do you need an operating system CD or Restore CD to reinstall the operating system?
- Do you have the necessary licensing and OEM numbers needed to register your software again?
