You're running WindowsXP and do not have the XP installation/OS disk?
Where did you buy your PC for that is illegal!!! The XP installation disk
stays
with the PC it was installed on, even when you sell yours. Your friends
don't have it either? You're all in deep trouble according to Bill Gates and
company. In fact,
you're paying the price right now.
BTW: Check your harddrive for a file called BIN. The files may be in there.
