XP Professional restore disc

My mom just got a computer from Craigs list and it's running XP Professional. The bad thing is that the hard drive is like, 90% full of the previous owners crap, and I can't restore the OS without the disc. Does anyone have a disc I could borrow?

Re: XP Professional restore disc

If you want a full install disc, I have one you can borrow, as well as a choice of 5 or so legit keys if you need one.

If you just want to do a restore install, normally you can press a certain key (differs depending on manufacturer) at boot and restore it from a restore partition on the drive.

Cool. I don't remember what brand it is, but I'll check into it and let you know. I'll probably end up borrowing your disc for the full install. I'll let you know.

Re: XP Professional restore disc

I have a copy of Windows XP Pro SP3 that passes all windows genuine advantage checks. You can update it and it won't receive a kill code, ever. It fully installs without you having to do anything. Automatically installs WMP11, IE7, SP3 and a slew of other shit. I can mail you a copy, or send you the torrent link if you do torrents.

If anyone else would like a copy, pm me and I'll hook a brotha up.

Re: XP Professional restore disc

Hey, I have legally acquired legit XP keys I'm never going to use. My desktop's on Vista 64-bit and my laptop's soon to be running Windows 7, so those keys are quite useless to me.

Really? I can't find anything credible on this. But still, who knows. Probably yea, PMs.

Have they ever been used? If so, they can never be used again, no other way around it possible.
