Hi folks,
I have just bought from an online retailer a nearly new Inspiron 7537 but unfortunately it has been left with the old users login details on it. I don't know the password nor do i have any intention of using the machine with their stuff on it. I wish to do a clean install of the OS (Windows 8.1) But i'm struggling to find out how to do this.
I spoke to the seller on the well known auction site and they have uploaded and shared 2 folders full of stuff on drop box. I've downloaded these (total is about 700mb for the 2 folders) and i'm not at a loss as to what to do with them.
700mb clearly isn't a full install of windows 8.1, I have also failed to get it to read from the usb properly. This whole UEFI is new to me and i don't understand.
There's no optical drive on these machines so what data do i need on the USB stick and where can i obtain it from?
Thanks in advance.
Rob
