amichcpl1...
Ok...this'll be a fun one! First, the product key. Click Start then Run and type regedit and click "Ok". In the left pane, expand (click the + sign) "H_KEY_LOCAL MACHINE"... then expand "SOFTWARE"...then expand "Microsoft"...then expand "Windows"...then expand "Current Version". In the right pane, look in the list for the "Product Key" listing and write that key down. Exit the registry editor.
Now...Open (double click) "My Computer" then open "Local Disk C:" then open "Windows". On the toolbar (top of the window), click "Tools" and then "Folder Options". Under the "View" tab, put a tick in the button next to "Show hidden files and folders", "Apply" the change and click "Ok". Now open "Options" and then open "Install".
From the next step on you should be in Windows Setup and this (hopefully) will reinstall or repair your OS without the cd.
Double click on the Setup icon...Setup should begin...let's hope that this is not an upgrade version...if it is, it will ask for a previous Windows version...any Windows 95 or 98 cd will work to get past this.
Good Luck!
