Hi,
I did not get a windows cd with my new computer.
It is a compaq and has windows xp.
Is this right? My old computer has a windows 98 disc.
 
Did you get a "Restore" disk? That disk has the Windows Operating System,
for your machine, on it.
 
It looks like Compac slipped it in the east end when you were facing west .
Don't take it "standing up" , give them a call. Jym
 
It is most likely on a hidden partition on your hard
drive. If you have problems you can restore from there.
 
The new Compaq and HP computer have NO restore cds with the unit. They
have a hidden restore partition that you can access by hitting F10 as
the cpu is booting up. From there you can completely restore your
system.

If you fidisk your drive. to bad, you will have to call and order the
cds. If the hard drive crashed you will have to take it to a place
that repairs that brand and have them fix it or ship it off to HP to
get fixed. ( Replace the hd and reimage the drive).

Sony does not even come with that anymore. You have to make your own
restore cds with a dvd and a cdr when you first get it. If you do not
and keep putting it off like most morons and you crash your system.
Then you have to order the cds from Sony.

This is all corp bean counting at work. Don't like it. Tough, complain
all you want they do not care.
