Reinstalling XP without CD

G

Guest

Recently my windows XP home edition has been getting some problems with the
sound card. I'm getting the dpvsetup.exe error when I go to test my hardware.
My sound is OK but when I try to use my microphone it doesnt work. I searched
through the internet and the microsoft site and all the solutions didnt help,
so I figured I accidentally deleted something and the only way I know how to
fix it is to reinstall.

Anyway, I seem to have lost my Windows XP home edition CD. I have the CD key
and that green and orange folder but no CD. So I was wondering if there were
a way to reinstall XP without the CD, but literally without the CD. Thanks!
