The restore disk usually comes with a pre-built system. From Dell, Gateway, HP, Compaq, plus quite a few others not commonly talked about. This Restore Disk Contains the setup files for windows. Drivers for your computer. When you do restore you reset your computer back to the first day that you got it. So anything you have installed since is wiped off.
