It is a fairly simple process but I need to send you few files.

Wipe it really clean? Like erase Windows and everything?
Do you have the original disks that came with the computer? If you boot from a Windows installation disk, then you can reformat (wipe) the disk before you install. That's a nice clean install. If you want to go a step further, you could repartition the drive with fdisk, then format it.
If you're looking to keep windows, but erase all the programs and files, that's more tedious. Open Control Panel, go to Programs & Features. You'll see a list of installed programs. You can double-click on a program to uninstall it.
To get rid of files, I would suggest creating a new User account for yourself, give yourself Administrator permissions, and then delete your friends account. Then you can look in the Users folder, and if you see your friend's account on a folder, delete it.
Most likely, you'll have to completely wipe your device using JL_Cmder. Yes, it's sad, but if you backed up your BlackBerry recently it shouldn't be a huge issue. You'll just have to restore it once you're done. If you haven't backed it up, well, it's a teachable moment. I had mine when my BlackBerry completely fried back in October. Hopefully you can learn from my mistake.
On your PC - and yes, you'll need a PC - you'll need the latest version of BlackBerry Desktop Manager and, for good measure, the latest operating system for your device. Plus, of course, JL_Cmder.
But, before you go wipe your BlackBerry, you might want to try a basic USB connection first. Plug in your Berry and instead of running Desktop Manager, run App Loader. There's a chance the device will connect, and at that point you can root around in the device's files. I'd recommend deleting any recently installed applications, plus any unused theme files - even your current theme, just to be sure. For some reason, third party themes can cause problems. Also, if you can upgrade your OS through App Loader, try that too. Once you do that, disconnect the device and see what's up. If it still doesn't work, onto the device wipe.
To do the full wipe, you can watch the following video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8IDrZ7KWME
Use fusion sofware to do so, if you do not see it then I suggest updating to latest firmware and software.
