Install error please help.

[cvhhvh]

I bought this new from my college so it comes with just
the holo disc XP prof. I cannot access product I.D because
it wont install. I have the code numbers it is suppossed
to ask for when it is installed but they are not in the
I.D format. I need a "asms" file that it says is missing
off the disc. The harddrive is formated and I do not know
using what system. I do not have an older version of
windows to use as is in frequently asked questions. What
can I do? I cannot change the disc because it has been 14
days and U.T.S.A claims it is not the disc but my C.P.U.
Please help.
