If you ve just installed the Beta, then you would have made a DVD to install the files to your computer. If you want to reinstall it, you have two options - run the setup file from the DVD within windows (any version) or boot using the DVD in your CD/DVD drive. You may need to change your boot settings for this to work, or press a key (such as F12) during the boot process, depending on your computer. This will launch the installer and you can opt to repair, reinstall or upgrade your existing Windows installation. If you don t know how to do this, it would suggest that you may be new to beta testing - Windows 7 is a beta, not a final release version. It will cease working in August, so I hope you have backed up all your documents, photos, music and other important files and know how to reinstall your previous operating system (XP, Vista, whatever).
You mean uninstall an upgrade to Windows 7? you can t go back if you upgraded Vista or XP. You need to backup your files and do a clean install of your old operating system. You have to do this because after August 31, 2009, the Windows 7 Beta will stop working and you ll be unable to use your computer since the operating system doesn t work. Once they release the retail version of Windows 7 you could buy it and upgrade your Beta to that. But that s at least 5 months where you couldn t use your computer
