| NO OPERATING SYSTEM! HI, I was just doing a system recovery on my C drive on my XP desktop. After using CD 1, I put in CD2 like it asked, then it came up with an error like: disk not compatable or something like the disk won't work (even though it was the correct disk!). Now when I boot up my desktop, it tells me that there is No Operating System found. PLEASE help in this problem- I would like to re-install Windows XP, but I do not have XP install disks because the computer came loaded with XP. *BTW- the computer has a D drive, I'm not sure if there are windows backup files on it, but C is the OS drive. THANK YOU!!!! |

| Re: NO OPERATING SYSTEM! I can't get passed this message, though. I can boot floppys, but the laptop I am on now does not have a floppy drive, so I cannot download the start-up disks...
