Erasing Current Software and Reinstalling Original Software and Settings
I have a Dimension 4300 and after many years of accumulating uneeded software and junk. I want to erase everything on my computer and reinstall the original settings and software. How do I do that?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Then you need to carry out a clean reinstall of XP.
First, did you disconnect all the peripherals from the system except the keyboard, mouse and monitor.
How to configure Dell Dimension series system to boot to the CD or DVD drive.
This XP reinstallation guide should be helpful.
During the installation, remember to use the option to delete all the partitions and then recreate them.
