Did the computer come with instructions on how to restore it from a restore CD?

Or, did you make the restore CD yourself and forget how it was backed up?

Not enough details.

If the restore CD came with the Computer, just put it into the CD-ROM, just set boot sequence to CD-ROM. and follow the instruction how to restore. It should be really easy.
