What a load of old tosh it is coz we bought a HP computer and it came with xp home sp2 disk included and a system restore disk.
Least it come with a disc and a clean install was an option for you

OP if you have any problems and you can not get the discs to set it up,it may be best to use a program like everest to identfy your hardware then buy a cheap oem version of windows and do a clean install anyway

I feel its out of order that these recovery packs are not supplied when the pc is bought let alone the fact you never get your hands on a copy of xp

When I supply a new pc it comes complete with dos norton ghost recovery,a godsend to one and all
