I installed windows 7 on my dell dimension 3000 and now I want to restore it back to the factory settings and factory OS. I don't have any recovery CDs and I tried the Ctrl + F11 thing but it doesn't do anything windows 7 still starts like any other time, is there any way to fix this or is there any other way to recorver it? ThanksHow do I recover my Dell dimension 3000 to the factory settings?I recently had this problem but without the windows 7 dillema, and I had to use alt +f11 that brought me to the factory defualt option. It should still work since the back kernel of windows xp is actually in windows 7. If that still fails you can download the ISO of windows xp from a good 'pirating' source and download all teh necessary files to a 'fake xp start up disc' thus allowing you to give yourself windows xp again. You will need a cd key that can either be bought from Microsoft or Dell. You could also try to call Dell and explain the situation but unless you know how to get to the partition part of the drive you can't really do too much. Goodluck though.How do I recover my Dell dimension 3000 to the factory settings?If you deleted the recovery partition you will need a XP install disc. If you still have it on the HD then go here:
