We have a staff member who has mashed their XP install on their home pc, one of our techs is fixing it at home for her, but we have no copies of XP home. The PC had a recovery partition and no rescue discs but this is also mashed. I've been pointed to an win7 home iso on digital river before, can anyone oblige with a similar download for XP home? My Google Fu is not strong this morning.
Many thanks.
It may be a good opportunity to upgrade if the PC is capable of running Win 7.
I can't link [Double filtered], but the bay where pirates hang out should have it.Quote:

We've offered that but they won't spend out for new stuff (it's got 512mb ram and 160gb disk) or the upgrade to 7.
I'm not going to suggest the bay of pirates to my law abiding colleagues!
Thankyou, but no thankyou!
Microsoft don't care where you get the install disk from, they only care if the licence is legit.Quote:

Yeah... But they are the sort of law abiding who will panic that the FBI are going to turn up at dawn for just starting a torrent client! It may be legit but the guilt will destroy them!Quote:
