you sure its reboot not reinstall?
for reinstall you will be needingthe recovery cd/dvd that came with the notebook.
what kind of notebook you have?

  1. Reboot is same as restart. If using Windows then, click on Start then on Shutdown then select restart from dropdown and then hit OK.
  2. avast, I never used it, but on their website they say its free.
  3. you can use VLC Player to play MP4 files.

Avast is a best free antivirus available. I'm currently using that and it saves me 2 times.
AVG antivirus is seconed number.
You need to install Quicktime to play mp4 mpeg4 files.
