Obviouly some one has completely re-formated the hard drive and wiped Toshiba’s Factory Restore partition.
Just download and use the Mircosoft Product Key on the underside of the laptop or use , on the existing OS, one of the programs that finds the product key on the hard drive. Probably best to do both or find a used XP CD with a product key.
Just curious. Why do you want to do this?

Shut down completely and then as soon as you power the device on start pressing the f11 button. Or press and hold the f11 button and it should open prompts to factory restore it.

Will this delete any existing data?
@rickruggieri Yes it will. Backup data first.

Here's how to do a factory restore:
The drive will be wiped clean when you do the factory restore. If you don't want to do that, do not proceed.
