RPM uninstall/install

Running FC5 on a Dell desktop. When I compile a LaTex file, it goes fine but
only outlines blank boxes where figs should be. When I send the figs.eps
and Tex file to a friend, his compiles and imbeds the fig. in the text of the
DVI output using my files without add'nl control cards. I conclude that I have likely damaged my LaTeX2 software, so would like to uninstall, then install fresh from my original fc5 disks. This is probably a job for RPM- but my 2 linux references don't tell me how to do this. Should I try, or am I better off just installing a new fc9 os? Thanks for sharing your expertise.
