    Hi. If You need to reinstall windows only you can download it from any torrent tracker. There are so many cracked with no serial or need to be activated. Download some iso, burn it to CD or make usb flash bootable and install from it. Good luck

          oi take off ur product key rite now unless u want it stolen

          around the serial there will be written Microsoft Windows Xp Professional or Home etc...

          What version do u have?

          i ask this because the original product key must match the same version of xp to work
          also u prob will have to start with SP1 and work ur way through the updates to get back to sp3

          considered windows 7?

                    download and install this Download uTorrent 3.2.1 Beta 27718 - FileHippo.com
                    then download this file using utorrent
                    ( NO TORRENTS OR LINKS TO BE POSTED ) once downloaded burn the image to dvd and install win 7 ultimate 64 bit first
                    if it fails install the 32 bit version
                    once installed and loaded into win 7 use this key loader to make it genuine
                    use forceful mode and when promted to restart do so


                    heres a xp home sp1 torrent that can be burned to a cd and installed http://bitsnoop.com/microsoft-window...-q1384320.html

                        32bit should be on that same that same disc
                        if u cant see 32bit look for 86bit this is the same as 32bit

                          if you want to load windows 7 try the following link they are iso files with no product key so before the 30 day activation period has expired use a boot loader to keep them updated.

                            If you still need help

                            Some of the old computers just will not work with 7, Laptops (older ones) don't have drivers for many built in parts like video and others. Some BIOS's will not see higher amounts of RAM.

                            If you have the tools to burn an image I can post the 32bit ver. of W7 with the "FIX" or the XP pro corp w/sp3 (no need to be activated).

                            PM me if interrested.
