With the machines # you can order a set from HP's site.
I recently got an HP mini and I think my cost was about 15$ for a set.

Don't know how long ago she got the HP, but I just purchased one and
there is an HP provided utility to burn a 3 DVD set which will
restore the machine to its factory settings; i.e. the OS and the
other junkware programs. I know Lenovo does the same thing; no disks
with the purchased machine, but a utility to create the reinstall disks.
See if you can find such a utility on your HP.

I'm thinking that the only way to fix her computer is to reformat &
reinstall OS. But since HP didn't include a Windows XP disk when
purchasing her computer, I will have to offer one of mine to
her. Is there a copyright issue here? Some of my Windows OS disks
were bought for computers that I once had but are discarded now so
that the same disk OS would be installed on only one computer at the same time.
