I assume you have the disk and are not trying to figure out how to aquire one.

The factory restore disk is simple to use. Put it in the CD drive and reboot. Follow the directions that are shown.

Be aware that this will more than likely erase your hard disk and all your data, pictures, MP3s, etc.

This process resets your laptop to the same state it was in when you originally opened the box.

Now, if you have a basic Windows install CD and not a restore CD that will just reinstall Windows (assuming you don't choose to reformat the disk). Your data will remain in tact. You will be required to provide the license key to do the reinstall. thats typically on a sticker on the bottom. AND, the key must match the version of Windows you install so if you got a disk from someone else you better have gotten the key as well.
