Since win98/Se is in this system hard-drive, I just wanted to make this clear is no software or software license come with this system " was just added.Would that hep me if i do report him to ms that he just added that to save his butt. Also do you think i should let him know that he is being a ass to a 13 that knows know better to tell him i want the disks with the tablet.

thanks for all the help

Only MS can answer that question. Go ahead and talk to them and if they say he is clear with that statement then he is clear. Still, sounds strange to me but maybe the seller knows something I don't.

Thank god for Tech's. My dad took it to work ang gave it to one of the techs to see if he could fix it. He found that it had a virus i dont know how cuz i never had it online but the seller might have.but any way he said that all it needs is a copy of win98se off floppy and that microsft sells them. The best part is that its only 16 floppys but i just cant find. So im just going to e-mail them and ask

Thanks for all the help you gave me.

1-800 RU Legit is the MS piracy phone number. They cannot tell you if the reseller has been reported or whether this policy is correct but they can "Provide information on how genuine software should be packaged and/or distributed "

Visit MS Anti-Piracy Website for online forms too.

Let us know.

I also recently purchased a Fujitsu Point 1600 tablet off E-bay with no
operating system on the hard drive. After reading your posts and going
to the Fujitsu website, I gather that the only way to enstall an OS on the
drive is through the floppy port. Are you using the Fujitsu FMWFD2 floppy
drive, or are there others that can be used? I wonder if you can buy an
adapter cable and use your own drive? I tried removing the hard drive
and installing a OS with a USB converter system, but had no luck. Could
not seem to make the other system(windows-Xp) recognize the Fujitsu
drive at the USB port. Have you had any luck with your tablet?
