Hi lorenzovrfs, "To 'restore' the Computer to Factory Settings."

Follow these instructions:

• "Restart the Computer."
• While the Computer is "Booting-up!
• Press [F8] button.
• The {Advance Boot Option} window will open.
• Click on the [Down] arrow to choose: "Repair Your Computer."
• Now, press the "Enter" button.
• Next, select the {Language} preference.
• "You will Log-in as the "Administrator."
• "Do not 'attempt' to do any work, while the "Restore is running!"
• Once the [Restore is complete].
• Click on the "Finish" button!"

Thank you!" - paul7of9

Here is the Dell tech support article for PC Restore to re-image the system to the factory settings.

If you mean BIOS setting, then enter the BIOS, choose Restore Defaults.
If you mean your windows installation, use the Operating System reinstallation CD from DELL (the green CD, for Windows XP). After operating system installed, use your driver CD (usually the blue CD from DELL). If you don't have the CD, please contact Dell support center to get the CD (charges may apply).

If you want to clear off all of your files and reset it to how it was when you first got it (Factory settings), hit CTRL + F12 when the computer is booting up.
