    Re-installing Vista?

    Hey guys, I plan on selling my current desktop and I wanted to know, when I do sell it I want to give them a clean OS. Could I re-install Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit on the same hard drive with the same parts without any hassle?

    Ok, so could I just pop it in while Vista running and just do it? Or should I do something else?

    You pop it in and reboot just as if you were installing it for the first time and then proceed through the installation without taking "repair" shortcuts..

    I never recommend people run RAID-5 with onboard chipsets.
