Hi Shlag, welcome to DaniWeb :D

If OS is XP, try an in-place upgrade (aka repair installation); instructions can be found here:

Then try using System Restore.

Your computer may have come with the OS on a hidden partition; you should have instructions, either on the computer or with the documentation that came with it, on how to create a bootable CD from there.
