Hi,


SORRY IN ADVANCE IF MY REQUEST IS IN BREACH OF ANYTHING!



I wanted to enable the Fax Service on my Windows XP and was following Microsoft's Support page (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306550/) for guidance, and when doing so I was prompted by my PC to insert an XP CD, which I don't have as XP was installed on my PC by someone else at a price.

Is there any way for me to download the components that an XP CD will have to enable the FAX Service on my PC from the internet?

(By the way the XP on my PC is a genuine version, I can get hold of a non-genuine XP CD but not sure if it will cause any problems if I insert it when prompted during Fax configuration)

Thank you.

Jay,

Did you ever receive information on how to fax without the CD? I am having the same problem and want to know how to bi-pass using the CD I don't have.

simply borrow a genuine CD off a friend ... use Home for Home & Pro for Pro

just don't use their Key for anything


Buy Win7
