Hi, I own a Dell Inspiron 1501 with Windows Vista. I recently bought it from a pawn shop. I have been using it for 2-3 months now and it has been working decent. All Windows 7 Update After Sp1k3 on this page.

I now want to restore it directly back to it's original factory settings. I have already tried restoring it to its earliest restore point but that was created shortly before I bought it. I also do not have the restore disk. I have no idea how I should go about restoring it, how to restore it, and what I will need to install after I restore it. I would like someone to help me along the way with prior knowledge.

Please and thank you.
