Quick Windows reinstallation - Microsoft Windows

Hello, windows became unstable and slow, can anyone tell me how to reinstall windows
quickly and without losing any data? I read somewhere that it's possible to install
windows in the unattended mode. How's that? What's needed for that?

There should be a repair option when you insert the CD and try to do the reinstallation.

P.S Moved to Windows forum.

Ok
There is some thing named GhostwindowsXP
In this windows installed in few minutes like 3 or 4 minutes.
But i didn't know either the data removed or not.
If data is removed it ll only in C:\ drive or in where you are installing windows.
But one thing more these ghost windows are full and complete.
GOODLUCK

You can easily install Windows in the unattended mode. Only you gotta have brains for that

here's an extract from the manual on unattended installation

This manual is for the following groups of IT specialists:

* IT specialists responsible for deploying device drivers on client computers working under
Windows Vista or Windows Server Longhorn.
* IT specialists engaged in planning and analyzing the information infrastructure and
evaluating the features of Windows Vista and Windows Server Longhorn.
* Security specialists responsible for protecting computer environments.
* Administrators who would like to get acquainted with the technology described in this manual.

read carefully, might work out for you as well.

There are different ways to go in case of unattended installation:
1. free, but difficult (do it all manually, read stuff, get into details)
Unattended Windows installation manual.
<snip>

2. paid and easy:
Almeza Multiset
[EDIT: commercial link removed]

Way back I tried both, now I have this one DVD from MultiSet
unattended windows installation + all the rest (drivers, service packs, software)
