I purchased a computer with Windows XP Home on it thru a Rent-To-Own place. Once it was paid for they promised a Restore Disc. Well, the Restore disc only has boot files on them. my daughter purchased a XP Pro system that said it was for 2 users. Well, we installed that and found out that was for 2 users from her computer, not 2 computers.

I want to restore my comptuter to the XP Home Edition, but dont know where I can get a restore disc... Any Help will be appreciated
