How do I Reimage a SafeGuard Easy laptop?

I have an old laptop that is protected with SGE. I don't care about the OS or data on the laptop, I just want to reinstall a new OS. How can I reimage it?

When I boot with the new Windows install disk is can't recognize the installed disk.

Thanks in advance,

F

  • Hi F,

    2 things. First make sure your install disk can see the drive i.e. has the appropriate HD controller driver and second, the SGN partition will be encrypted and unrecognised. If you go to advanced settings in the initial screen you can delete non-dos partition and then install in unallocated space which will create the 2 basic win 7 (assuming that's what's going back on it) partitions for you....
