Default What should I do???

Reason number 1 why I hate moving :

You lose half your Windows CDs.

Lost my:

Windows 2000 SP3 CD
Windows XP SP2 Professional CD

I REALLY REALLY needs these CDs, is there an way I can install without CD's? I already memorized the COA...

when you say move, are you refering to physical, like changing to another home ?
there's network boot but then again it wont fit your case
sorry, but get them cd's and keep them safe

Well the 2000 CD was gone for like an month... lol already lost my 95' CD... still have COA though. Have floppies for 95.. over 20copies of 98SE. I THINK I know where the XP CD is..

Tacitcracker - Explain more? Called Microsoft? Ask for COA and sent you CD? What cost?
