I have an emachines with Windows XP with SP1. Every time I get ready to
install SP2 I hear some new problem has arisen with it. Now I read in the
2/8/05 PC Magazine ("Build an XP-SP2 Recovery Disk" P. 76) that once I
install SP2 I will no longer be able to use my Windows XP recovery disk to
reinstall the OS. According to the article I need the full Windows XP CD not
the recovery disk that came with my machine. Emachines said they are not
responsible for any upgrades to XP. According to the article, Microsoft
should supply it since I did pay for it with my machine.
When I punched in the registration number, Microsoft told me to go to
Emachines.
How do I get the disk from Microsoft since I cannot reach them by email.
I need the full Windows XP disk . How can I get it?
Also the article said some copies of XP cannot be "slipstreamed". If this
is true,
isn't there an easier way to reinstall XP with SP2. If not, how do I
reinstall XP
with SP2 without any problems.
