"Hello my name is Izabella and I'm going to explain to you how to restore XP to its factory settings. Sometimes it's needed to restore your system to factory settings when there is something goes wrong. If you restore your system then it will go faster, and it will run properly. Now I'm going to show you how to do this. In the start menu, you select all programs, then accessories, and then in the system tools go to system restore. Now we have to click on restore my computer to an earlier time, then click on next, and here they have the calendar we have to choose the date, we have to choose the restore point that we would like to restore our computer. In the right window you can see what happened on that restore point. If you accept this then click on next, and here you have to confirm the restore point selection, if you would like to confirm click on next."
