Hi bluelink12@sbcglobal.net, My name is Ron. I’m a member of the Windows Outreach Team. Just saw your question and thought I’d pop in and try to help out a bit. First, I’d suggest that you try and find your original OS discs (that’d be the easiest fix). If you can’t locate the original discs you can purchase a new version of either Vista or XP. Note: Microsoft stopped shipping XP on June 30, 2008. That doesn’t mean they aren’t out there, they are just considerably harder to find, so Vista is your best bet and also has the most up-to-date suite of tools. What’s the make and model of your printer? I might be able to point you toward some driver information. Hope this helped a bit. Cheers, Ron Windows Outreach Team

you can t buy xp anymore. microsoft attempted to shove vista on everybody and discontinued it. you can take your chance with a used copy, i have seen some people selling those on craigslist. good luck, you can also try ubuntu, its a great os with a very appealing desktop if you have a decent videocard.

Best bet is to buy a fresh copy of WIndows XP. Just a tip. Next time, use a program like VMware. Virtual machine software lets you run the operating system while still inside the main os. It is your best bet on playing around with different operating systems, especially the ones in beta like WIndows 7.

you did not follow instructions you need a full version If Windows 7 is the only system it might be enough to simply format the hard drive and install a new operating system. It is always better to install a new operating system on a clean system. http://windows7news.com/2009/01/28/unins...

buy a retail full version of either xp or vista personally i prefer vista but if your comp doesn t have the right specs it is a waste of a good operating system.
