The problem with whiping a brand new computer and installing your own will not necessarily void warranty but if you have a problem like something is not working, technical support will tell you to restore the system.
Many new systems now don't even come with original software disks requiring you to backup the machine using preinstalled crapware to create a backup DVD.
This was the case with a couple of laptops I purchased in the past three years; one of which was a Toshiba.
Years ago, when you purchased a machine, you got driver disk separately and even now I'm seeing a trend where that's becoming less the case.
At least this has been my experience.
