>> 1.How do i reinstall my window homebasic using my recovery disc?
Try the info provided here:
HP Notebook PCs - Using HP Recovery Manager

>> 2.Do I need to reactivate again if I reinstall ?
Probably not. It's the same computer. HP's Recovery Manager will do it for
you.

>> 3.How different between genuious and none?
Genuine means you can run your operating system forever. None means you
have 30 days to activate, or your operating system will stop working.

>> 4.How can get window areo and media center for my computer (any free
>> version on internet)?
A free version from the internet will put you back into the situation you
are in now...
