It is my intention to completely wipe my hard drive, removing partitions, etc. Then re-install Window 8.1. I have 2 backups of my data/PC. Are there any concerns I should be aware of? I am fairly tech able but not a programmer. I can follow instructions well. Any advice would be appreciated. I have already tried refreshing 8.1 and PC is better but still not up to par. I think a factory reset is in order, PC came with Win 7(I upgraded to 8.1)
Thank you,
Hal
