    i need a copy of win xp pro cos my cd is wrecked. i have my own cd key so theres nowt illegal about it. anyone got one? preferably in the dub 15 area but can meet in town or wherever

    i asked this a few days ago but i arranged to get it off someone and that went a bit belly up cos he lives 400 thousand miles away (slight exaggeration) so i need to start looking again :(

    [edit]: the cd can't sp2 on it. my gfx card doesn't like it for some reason

    You don't want it with Sp2? The only other reason someone would say that is i they wanted to add hacking tools to it.

    its not matched to a single cd. i need one without sp2 because there's some sort of conflict with my graphics card that makes the computer crash any time i do something graphics intensive like watch a video or play a game. ive tried making it work with sp2 but sp1 works fine for me so i cant be bothered anymore. no one have it?

    Have you tried contact M$?

    I'm sure they would be able to help you with a CD once you have a valid CD-Key...

    That statement is complete and utter balls.

    There is a myriad of reasons why you would not want SP2 slipstreamed on the CD, one being that a lot of SP1 CD-keys won't work with an SP2 CD.

    Didn't I read somewhere MS are going to make SP2 a forced download?
