yes,

also most laptops have a recovery partition you have to boot into. some require that you made CDs when you first got your computer, others dont. to get to the recovery partition youre going to have to press a function key on bootup... which function key depends on your make and model.

i dont bother with any of this because laptops usually come with a ton of bloatware that  i dont want to deal with, so i just use my windows 7 cd i bought when i built my desktop and use the windows key that came with my laptop to activate it, and then install all the necessary drivers (windows usually does a pretty good job with this part). then voila! i have a super bloatfree and clean laptop. only thing i have to uninstall is internet explorer.

oh and i cant do the recovery partition anyways because i installed an SSD into my laptop.

hmm, I'll look for that, thanks!
