:( I need to reboot my computer but I can't find an original XP CD. I have one but it's not original. Also I don't have any money to buy one. Anyone knows a link for XP setup download?

If it is the same version of the on ethat is on the PC you have now, you should be OK as long as you have the product key # that is installed on the system now

If not comfortable with using registry editor, see if you can find someone you trust to get the information for you
