i bought a new disk with product key and reformatted my
hard disk; the former version of xp pro on this comp was
riddled with a virus which had duplicated into nearly
every file on this machine.
i have performed the full install. i don't understand how
it wasn't installed with the rest of the components. i
have no access to the original disk from when i bought
this machine as i bought it second hand. but i do know
that this machine (compaq armada m700) was originally
released with 98 on it.
should it not have been included on the installation disk
that i just bought last week? i have registered and
activated windows just yesterday, but i can't recieve non
paid for tech support from microsoft because the
retailers i bought it from has aparently an obligation to
give me that support.
thanks
kat
