Windows XP restore

[leosayer]

How would I do this on my home pc if I don't have the install disc. I bought a Dell pc a few years ago and xp came pre-installed, without the discs.

My pc is working fine, but I want to prepare for the worst.

You should have got a Dell recovery CD with it. That will install XP etc and restore the machine to exactly how it was at the time you bought it.

Cheers I'll have alook when I get home, I was looking for a Microsoft disc, not Dell.

Good Luck with Dell's world renowned (lack of) customer service -

my Dell came with no discs & I am still having hell's delight in getting a recovery disc.

They say I should have noticed at the time of delivery - there was no packing list either

Disk pack costs an extra £7 iirc.
