What did Dell say? Can't you order recovery disks from them even if the warranty has expired?

Nope, he wouldnt speak to me until i renewed my warranty

Interesting...certainly something to consider when purchasing a computer.

What did the additional "warranty" cost?

I've managed to 'download' Windows Media Center operating system, and burnt both disks onto my own disks, now how can i make it so that my computer when i boot it up boots from the disks i've created? Thanks

Not sure if we can help you there....

I managed to fix it myself

I found a copy of Media Center and burned it onto a disk, and then changed the setup to put from  Disk and then partitioned my hard-drive following guides on the internet and installed Media Center onto the computer and now everything works fine

Thanks so much guys
