So i have an old computer and ive taken all i want from it, but before i give it away i would like to restore it to the factory settings. The reason i want to do this is that i would hate for any of my private "musings" mainly letters to my T to still be there and be found by a new owner. Its a Dell if that means anything to anyone. I should say im a technical moron so if anyone has anyideas could they tell me in plain english cos i really dont have a clue.
