Is there a way to restore factory settings w/o the discs?

I have a Dell Dimension desk top that is about 6 years old running XP. I didn't get the discs with it and I would like to restore it back to factory specs. Any ideas?

It depends whether you have recovery partition inside the HDD. You should see recovery application from Start -> All Programs if any. Otherwise you must do manually with the new OS and the respective drivers
