Hi,
I've been having some trouble with my computer, its an old Dell E521 running windows Vista. It keeps on freezing and crashing about 5 mins after starting and then when I restart it , it says it cannot find the boot device. When I run it in safe mode it works fine , no crashes/hassle at all. Is the best thing to do to just reinstall windows and if so how do I go about this?
