You don't need the license key to do the reinstall - for that matter, just use the quick restore (F8 at powerup a few times to get to the "repair" menu). It'll take you back to where the system was at the time you received it.

Hi Bissan,
Refer to this link for steps to restore the system to factory settings as suggested by ejn69 :
support.dell.com/.../document
If that does not work than you can use the Windows OEM (Original equipment Manufacture)DVD which you got along with the system.If you use the OEM Windows DVD it will not ask for the product key number to activate Windows.
For steps for manual reinstall using the Windows DVD use the link below :

Hope this helps,
Thank You
