Hi all, I am a new member and I need some help installing XP, here is a run down on what i've done so far.

1. I formated my current HDD, it asked a question at the end and I answered none.

2. I have tried to run setup from the cd rom but the only one I can get to work is Windows 98SE which was installed when I formated but I don't have the key for thast one anymore forgot to write it down (DUMB ME).

3. I have tried Windows 2000 pro, XP pro, and XP home and it won't locate either disk.

I am in a jam can anyone help?

Thanks

I'm out of bed and dressed, what more do you want?

I always take life with a grain of salt, ... a slice of lemon, ...and a shot of tequila

I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out

One more step to enlightenment ... but which way ?

I'm not grouchy by nature, it takes constant effort.
