All computer manufacturers who preinstall Windows XP employ
some method to restore Windows XP to its original factory condition.
Read the User's Guide that came with your PC or visit your PC's
support website for information on returning your PC to its original
factory condition. It may be there is a "hidden partition" containing
the Windows XP reinstallation files. Your PC manufacturer can tell
you the proper procedure for reinstalling Windows XP.
