    Hi All,

    I bought Lenovo Y550 in dec 2009. Since then I have not deleted the partition as the C partition contains Recovery S/W. Is there any way I can reinstall my Windows 7 and repartition the disk space?
    Also can you please advice me which bloatwares to remove? I still have them I guess. For eg : Lenovo First boot etc.

    Thanks in Advance :)

    You can just hit F8 before boot and choose to go to recovery. Another good way is to boot with a linux live cd and select from the bootloader the partition named Windows NTFS.
