Reinstalling Software
Enabling System Restore
 
NOTE: 
Windows Vista does not disable System Restore; regardless of low disk 
space. Therefore, the steps below apply only to Windows XP.
If you reinstall Windows XP with less than 200 MB of free hard-disk space 
available, System Restore is automatically disabled. 
To see if System Restore is enabled:
1 Click Start→ Control Panel→ Performance and Maintenance→ System.
2 Click the System Restore tab and ensure that Turn off System Restore is 
unchecked.
Using Dell PC Restore and Dell Factory Image Restore
 
NOTICE: 
Using Dell PC Restore or Dell Factory Image Restore permanently deletes 
all data on the hard drive and removes any programs or drivers installed after you 
received your computer. If possible, back up the data before using these options. 
Use PC Restore or Dell Factory Image Restore only if System Restore did not resolve 
your operating system problem.
 
NOTE: 
Dell PC Restore by Symantec and Dell Factory Image Restore may not be 
available in certain countries or on certain computers.
Use Dell PC Restore (Windows XP) or Dell Factory Image Restore (Windows 
Vista) only as the last method to restore your operating system. These options 
restore your hard drive to the operating state it was in when you purchased 
the computer. Any programs or files added since you received your 
computer—including data files—are permanently deleted from the hard 
drive. Data files include documents, spreadsheets, e-mail messages, digital 
photos, music files, and so on. If possible, back up all data before using PC 
Restore or Factory Image Restore.
Windows XP: Dell PC Restore
Using PC Restore:
1 Turn on the computer.

of the screen.
