Resetting getting cancelled by windows

[Greenish]

Ok so I am going to make this quick. My PC has been acting up and blue screening alot for, system service error and more stuff like that which when researching them I figured out resetting would work. So long story short I have a list of apps i need to reinstall and I have backed all of my photos and files. But however, windows isnt allowing me to reset. Now I didnt want to go any further without expert help, I figured formatting the drive with all the apps on, and then formatting the drive with windows installed. Then I will boot it up and use one of my usb's with windows media tool installed. Now I am not quite sure how I should go around formatting the boot drive. I should also note that I have a few other SSD's in my computer if that is relevant.

 

Thanks Everyone in  advanced!

If all your data is already off, set up a bootable USB with windows. Unplug everything but your OS drive so you don't mess up the others, and from the windows install on the USB you can wipe/format all the partitions on the OS drive (there will be several on the same drive which windows creates), and then use the remaining full drive partition to select windows to install on.

Ok so should I format my 2TB drive with all my apps and games on first?

Whats your exact drive setup? I don't want you to wipe the wrong drive. Is that 2TB drive the one your games are on?

So I have a 120GB SSD LiteOn ,That one is my OS Drive

I also have another 120GB SSD Western Digital, which is for my recordings for youtube so I have fast access to it

I also have another 256GB SSD Sandisk, that I just picked up yesterday and I am planning on putting essential apps, but there is nothing on it right now.

Finally I have a 2TB HDD Seagate Barracuda, that has all of my Apps and Games on it.
