How to restore your computer to factory settings without a disk?

I want to restore my computer without the disk?

  • I have a windows 7 dell and want to restore my computer back to factory settings but i dont have the disk, but i was wondering of any method to make my computer somewhat like factory settings or faster. By the way I dont care if all my documents are deleted i dont have that much anyway.

  • Answer:

    Since this will probably happen again you might as well get the OS disk. You gotta have spare parts for your computer just like you have to have a spare tire for your car. The most important spare part is the OS. Don't forget to run disk clean up and disk defragmenter for maintenance every day.
