I purchased MS XP Professional. From a close friend. He
never used his system to connected more that one computer.
I have a couple that i want to connect. The problem is
After i obtain all the information from control panel, I am
asked to inser the CD Disk XP Professional to load the
drivers. I Do Not Have The CD! How can i obtain the drivers
that will allow me to connect other computers on my system
without the CD "Disk". Any help would be appreciated...

Well, no CD means you can't install the necessary files.
What that means is you'll need to purchase Windows XP.

Ask your friend for the CD, sooner or later you will need it.
Otherwise you may have to buy Windows XP Pro.

On the off chance, see if this applies:

If you bought it it means you bought the CD. Otherwise your friend is still
using XP prof and your using it means you are inviolation of the EULA.
