#1 - Your hard drive idea won't work unless your system is almost exactly the same as his, otherwise you'll have to reinstall windows.
#2 - Don't bother trying to clean a virus infection from regular windows. Go into safe mode and start from there (after you install/update an programs you plan on using).
I'd also recommend Spybot to try removing the remaining viruses, it's updated often.
