How do I do a Full System Restore W/O CD? FOR HP Pavilion Zx5000 Notebook

I am having a problem with my computer speed, it has been getting slow recently since I have been using software like dazzle for video editing, but recently something happened and I do not know what that has made my computer much slower, I want to fully restore my computer and start over, I have already backed up all my files and I am ready, but I have no restore CD, I want to fully restore not use the SYSTEM RESTORE for XP that allows you only to restore to recent points, My computer is a HP Pavilion Zx5078 cl notebook, and I am running on XP Service pack 2.
