If you have a news reader, you can get it from alt.binaries.cd.image or one of the other images groups.

I've heard a clean install is best for XP(to remove your current OS and install it fresh), not installing on top of the OS you're running on now....

Use morpheus and look for win xp pro and download it. Burn it on a cd and do a clean install.

Yes, morpheus is the same as Kazaa. I will see if i could host my file somehwere. It's too arge for me to email. What kind of emailing service do u use. Maybe we can set up an aim p2p sharing session where you can take my zipped xp file.

I got mine off of Morpheus ---
It took about a week of random trying to finally get the whole file.
You have to remember its about a half a gig that you're downloading -- so if somoeone else has a slow connection or one that bombs often -- you keep getting cut off -- but if you keep trying you'll find a good one. Or, if you want ... I can *find* a CD of it *lying* around (legally purchased and paid for copy, of course) and send it to you -- just pay me shipping.
email me if u want TommyBoiSxty9@aol.com

I had 98SE --- but I noticed a slight increase in speed -- and its loads more stable... I've only locked up/crashed once in the few weeks i've been using it now.

Lots of little things were added that "would have been nice" on 98....

Like those little things we wish our TL had... and the next gen probly will

Mafioso -- lemme know if u want a cd.

SERGE? was it u who wanted adaptec? i forget -- do u still?
