well, im fixing a computer for a friend, and i need to completely format the HDD and reinstall windows, only one problem, though; the dell support reinstall disc is corrupt

where can i buy or download a disc of windows xp? i already have a CD Key (which is really what you pay for)

any help is appreciated!

Howdy:

Get a new one from Dell. The cd key you are wanting to use is only allowed to be used on that particular Dell cd.

that will probably work, but before i do that, are thee any other, faster alternatives? my friend needs her PC back by january 2nd (for school)

Yep.. go down and buy a new retail copy of XP or find someone with the exact same system and Dell Restore cd and use that.
