Olivetti OLIBOOK S1500 factory settings (please help!!!)

[N00B SAIBOT]

Hello, I own the laptop in the thread description and I need to restore it to it's factory settings (i.e clear all my personal info etc) before I sell it .the problem is when I go into the bios menu i can't seem to find the option to do so and anything I try takes me to a black screen and says "insert correct boot device and try again" or something smilar. I don't have any discs or anything with it as the laptop just came on it's own when I aqquired it. I have looked at olivetti support and tried to find any info but to no avail. Please help if possible!!! Would like to sort this by tommowrow

There's normally a small partition on the hard drive with the original set up on it and shoould have specific instructions in the manual - they should have the manual on line also.
