Hello all,
I have an emachines PC running XP home which I am planning to let my
employee have for home use as i have bought a new one. I would like to
restore the machine back to factory settings so it has none of my
stuff on it. i do not have any of the discs or any paperwork for the
machine? Any ideas anyone.

Contact eMachines for a recovery disk or purchase a retail copy of XP
and do a clean install. Be smart and back up the drivers first since
eMachines is dreadful about making drivers available. Make sure you give
this retail copy to your employee, as well as any programs you choose to
install if you are transferring ownership of the machine to him/her.
