Most OEM pc's have a factory restore partition built into the HDD that you access while its booting up. The option will be presented to you at the bottom of the screen at the same time as the option to enter the bios/setup. (it was Alt+F10 on the last Gateway I worked on) next you would select the Factory Restore option and confirm your selection.

if there no restore partion you your hard drive. google your model pc on ebay see if someone is selling the old cd that came with the pc. if you cant find the disk on ebay then your pc vendor will send you a disk for a small fee.
