basically i broke my windows install,

im not sure if it was an update or 1 of the many programs i uninstalled or a file got corrupted because i resized the partition
it starts loading up, gets to some AGP driver then restarts

although i have a valid license (a.k.a stupid sticker on laptop) i don't have a windows CD. is it possible to legally download the ISO and burn it?
as ive not got round to installing anything else on the laptop yet, would i be able to do this at a WTS cluster?

and if there's no legal ISO if i download a torrented one without cracks will microsoft know its not legit?

Are you a CS student? If so, there is something that they don't tell you very much that you can get...

Basically, any CS student can get a free copy of lots of different Microsoft software e.g. Access, Vista, XP etc. You need to register with the helpdesk iirc, but you will be able to download a completely legitimate copy of XP.

Or I can give you my version of XP with a volume licensing key, its all good. biggrin.gif
