The NV55c Users Guide is here: NV55c Usrs Guide . The directions for doing a restore to Factory Settings will be listed there.

Usually you can get to it via the Start Menu / Programs / Gateway or by pressing a Fn key during boot as soon as you see the Gateway logo. The key is often F10, Ctrl+F10, F11, Ctrl+F11 but it can e something else. Each manufacturer is different.
