I had Windows XP Home edition installed on my computer and
had to uninstall it because it was not functioning due to
some kind of corruption or virus (I never did figure out
what caused the problem.) When I tried to reinstall it
from the disk, I had problems and concluded that the disk
had become corrupted. I want to contact Microsoft to
inquire about getting a replacement installation disk, but
they require the product ID number when you try to e-mail
or call them for information, which apparently can only be
found when the product is installed on the computer.
Obviously, since it is now uninstalled, I cannot do that.
Any suggestions on how I can resolve this problem? thanks
for any help. (By the way, I cannot use the product ID
for my old operating system which I am now stuck with
because it is that miserable Windows ME and they no longer
offer any support for that piece of crap.)
