What model HP is it?  Most HP's come with a quick way to restore it to 
the way it was the day you bought it - without using disks and just a 
few clicks.  It uses a hidden partition on the harddrive to install the 
original factory default image.  It's a lot faster than reinstalling the 
whole OS - but if it fails you can still install XP from your disks.

Good luck,
Donk
