I have a small problem and although I have bought a laptop on Ebay classifieds… The seller had not reset the laptop and just have the login data not to sign me up.

could one somehow reset the laptop without me logging in there?

the buyer does not answer.

Best to reinstall the system because resetting will be difficult.

ba

I would do but how does that work, I'm a little inexperienced as far as that is concerned.

Do I need a CD if so what for one

Ka

OK, you have to reinstall. Which laptop model exactly, what operating system is on it now?

ba

Is an HP laptop. I believe MS-DOS. Can I tell what the operating system is?

Pr

Just reinstall the operating system. What is on it?

Pr

Either a DVD or a USB stick. A CD does not provide enough storage space.

You can take any disk and then play up a Windows 10 image with Microsoft's Media Creation Tool.

ba

I do not know. Can I somehow find out what's on it? It is an HP laptop.

Ka

HP laptop.

There are hundreds of HP laptop models. Which laptop model exactly? Below is below…

Obviously, you bought a device without a Windows operating system. Depending on the laptop model, you now have to choose which operating system is possible on the computer.

Pr

When you start you should see what's on it. Is any logo or something to see?

ba

Do you mean right or left at the bottom? If yes there's no logo

Pr

I actually mean right in the middle.

As a rule, you can see the operating system, or at least the logo of it, starting there
