A friend has a PC with XP Pro. He does not have an installation CD, but we
have the original Product Key on the label.
This box has several severe problems. I am sure it is infected with all
sorts of trash.
Right now Control Panel will not open
My Computer will not open.
I have not been able to get to Safe Mode
Etc. etc.
What I would like to be able to do is use a WIN 98 startup diskette and
reformat the C: drive and then reinstall XP.
But there is no CD. He got this PC as a hand me down from a family member.
I have an XP install CD that is for a different machine.
Is there a way to work this problem?
