Hello - Turned off my Sony Viao 3 weeks ago all was working fine, turned it
on and got a flash of a blue screen & then the computer gives a bunch of
loading options - I tried all combinations no good
So tried installing my Windows XP Home CD - Note Sony gave this CD as a free
upgrade from the Millennium Operating System-
Well the computer wants the Product Key Number for the XP disk - which I
can't get as the computer won't load
any ideas? Should I try a Registry from an earlier date? Have no idea how
to do this or where to look - we (my wife) needs files from this computer & I
threw out all the boxes that had all the info etc for the computer - yeah I
know you Ain't Suppose to do that!
Hope someone can help Please
