Hi Guys

I am helping an elderly lady with her computer.She was away and it seems
her grand kids started with porn.Now I need to re-install Xp but I donot have the CD but when she bought the PC she got a CD and on her PC is the
Microsoft sticker of authentication.She has lost the CD.

How can I a copy of XP Home please.

Thanks

Contact microsoft SA, they will need the serial number under the Product Key. Once authenticated they can send you another CD.
 
why format, if there's spyware/adware use a ad/spyware remover, AD-Aware SE Personal (Free) and Spybot (Free)
 
How about seriously rolling the system state back with 'System Restore'? ..it may be possible to roll back to before granny left and the delightful kiddies got stuck in.

Good plan! System Restore has saved my bacon several times.
 
ah, and here you are now @ Velvet-Dreams :D

Congratz to you if system restore works @ dd1313.

Agree with mh348 getting all the stuff removed with tools and what-not.

Care to share before you wipe tho? :D

The fact that I find it funny that so many people are selling DVDs & software next to the side of the road, or that crime is spiralling out of control in this country?

Not sure what you mean?
