With out a Install disk Or Restore Partition no . Have you tried a System Restore or ran some utilities like Tuneup 2007 , Ccleaner or mabye an online scan for viruses ? If you can access the net you can get another Win XP disk .

just fix you computer manually. anti-spyware programs etc.

using a restore disc will only get you back to square 1. then you will have to download and install every M$ update there has been since you bought your PC.

besides, not all restore discs are the same. if you use one from a different mfg. you most certainly run into problems.

btw, there's no such thing as a "student version" in the context in which it's being described.

good luck.

No student version ? Funny how all the Slipstream versions lately from Black , Indego , Gold , Indego ver, 2 , XP Custom or XP Performance have a Student key supplied . ( Did I miss any ?)


Your right tho I should of explained myself better . :)

You only install what you want and some have updates , Indego's are fairly recent June 07 I think ? .




@Zap , really I did n't know that I just assumed , it is a free key for the masses so works either way I guess . :D

Most that I D/L are a ISO so ya just burn to disk . You can get just a regular Win XP Pro with updates from a Etho release their pretty good . :)
