I want to wipe my hard drive and put it back to factory
settings, but I can't find my systerm restore CD. Is
there anyway I can do all that with out the cd?

Not unless your computer is one that came with the restore information on a
hidden partition on the hard drive. If it cm with the restore CD and you
lost it, then you're either going to have to contact the manufacturer and
get another one, or go out and buy whatever it is you need.
 
Lena,

Not possible. If you have purchased an OEM unit, you need to contact the manufacturer for the Restore CDs. The Restore CDs contain the OS as well as applications imaged [generally] Sysprep'd.
