What do you mean by factory CD? 1 from Microsoft? Or an alienware disc? If
it's from the manufacturer, there's a 80% chance it's not clean; though they
don't include the apps and such, they often make registry edits and include
drivers and such in the OEM portion of setup, which can tamper with the
installation. That's what I'm referring to when I say clean install. By
definition, a clean install is 1 that uses a disc straight from Microsoft,
that has a "vanilla" image of the proper windows version.
For example, dell and HP usually include windows discs with their pro model
computers, however when you examine the discs, you'll quickly find that the
images have been altered, or the setup scripts have been changed to include
OEM (original equipment manufacturer) items.
In your case, the disc is probably a better choice than the image, since the
image is probably loaded with bloatware (unnecessary software/demos which
slow the system down).
HTH, D!J!X!

While I have the original factory CD with Windows 7 ultimate I also have a
backup image, what do you suggest I do install from CD? And then run all the
updates and then install Cakewalk or should I just install Windows 7
ultimate from CD and then sonar and Kate talking?
