i'm in india,its impossible to get pirated things here...
Impossible.. ?
i remember purchasing the win Xp pack,
Ah.
Good.
the tech told me everything was installed and all i had to do was connect the cables as he adviced me.I didnt get the win xp pack from him.
Not good.
do you think he might be using it?
If there is a possible way, then yes.
i really donno wat i've done.i was so excited about gettin the computer that iforgot every thing else.
Excitement is very understandable. A nice new computer IS exciting.
I suspect that the tech knew that from experience, and took advantage of it - hoping you'd forget the CDs.
was i supposed to get the cd pack?
Since you said you paid for it, then yes.
pls guide me
Others here will have to advise you on XP.
But this might turn out to be an expensive lesson. Hopefully, you can make it a one-time lesson.
You might have to go purchase another legitimate copy of WinXP Pro.
Even if you don't have to buy one right now, someday you will. You'll need it.
Sometimes there is a special partition on your drive, that you can use to do recovery, etc. I've only read about it. I believe it is usually on laptops though.
Perhaps someone else here can tell you how to find out if you have such a thing, and how to use it.
That's grasping at straws, but since I thought of it, I thought I'd mention it.
