Did you receive a recovery disk with your computer when you purchased it?

Or if you have your OS cd, just run it at startup of your comp, If you need to change what drive starts up, change it in your bios or you can change it by pushing one button on your keyboard... mines f8 :S

It really depends on if you received a OS disk with your computer
Full version or Recovery disks

You may have a recovery partition, again, depends on computer
I like to hunt down video, sound,  network drivers, etc.. ahead of time and put them on a thumbdrive
They'll be the most up to date
