    Good day everyone! I just got from a friend of mine a Dell inspiron 1720 that my daughter plans on using. It was acting a little weird and upon contacting Dell, they recommended doing a reinstall a VISTA. I finally got the disk from my friend. Actually I got two disk, Reinstallation DVD Windows Vista and the drivers and utilities DVD. Would someone mind explaing to me on how to go about reinstalling this as to have a pure computer(new). Which disc goes first etc. Thank you from the noob!
