Laptop Help

Idk if this is the right place but wtv. I was hoping all you techies could tell me wtf is going on.

So i want to restore my computer to factory settings due to the fact that it can't play any game without going at 10 FPS.
After a bit of googling i found out how to do it on a gateway laptop, which is to go into gateway recovery management and do a destructive restore. Now the problem is, when I open that up, I get this:

btw that's the laptop I have in the background.
My OS is legit vista 64-bit.
Any help or other way to restore to factory settings without a disc?

just get a cracked version of windows and clean install it.

Yeah but aren't there some disadvantages to getting a cracked version?

[Corndog]

if you get the same version of windows that you legitimately own, then there are no legal penalties.

Why Cracked? and what's Empowering Technology

Could you find a link and pm it to me cause I'm not good with this stuff, I'd probably download a virus or something.

your 17” resolution fits in my web browser which isn’t even maximized.
