clean windows install

[eshwaarx]

so ive been thinking about buy a new laptop that dosent have a cd drive. i was wondering how would i do a clean install on this system. i dont want to buy a usb cd rom, could i install using a usb key? i will be getting a msi gs70 stealth pro.

This works great for making bootable usb keys. http/www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
But you will need to get an ISO. A quick google search usually will usually find you microsoft OEM download links.

Laptop would have a restore partition you can use to bring it back to factory defaults in addition to installing a clean version yourself.
