Compaq Mini Cq10-101sa. Anyone Know How To Restore Back To Factory Settings Xp

Came with no discs. No recovery suite like Roxio. I have no DVD writer/player to make copy. Have tried WIN32.EXE but while its running it states that certain files are missing so can't complete. Great little machine. Would hate to lose it!
