I am getting really irritated with the way that everything on my computer is getting. I would like to restore my computer to day one. I want to get ready of everything and restore it to its original condition with no programs, just Windows XP and nothing else. I have a copy of Windows XP on CD still, but I don't have a factory restore disk or anything else. The computer was built by a friend, so it didn't come with one. Can anyone tell me how to restore it with nothing but a copy of Windows XP on CD?

You can check if a restore point from day 1 has been saved and restore to it. You can also do a format but I don't think u want to loose all files.
I want to lose all files. I am tired of fragments of programs that are gone slowing my PC down. I am tired of spyware and adware. I am tired of turning my computer on to find out that 1000 drivers are missing. There are so many problems with my computer that I am not trying to fix it. I can reload all the software I use, which is only 6 programs. I want to wipe it clean. Tell me how to do it.

You can format during XP installation. Boot with the CD and you will be given an option to format the drive.
Make sure your BIOS is set to boot from CD-ROM as primary boot device.
