did you buy this unit new? if so it should come with a system install disk, you could get a disk from microsoft

 

no it did not the laptop is made by samsumg and it has samsumg on the the COA so would i need a specfic windows disc.

how would i go about asking micosoft for the discs and how much would it cost

 

You can't: The disc would have to come from samsung as it contains special files that specific laptop needs. Also Microsort would refure you to samsung for any support. They do not support Oem installs.

 

yer the drivers but i can get them from the samsung site

 

Maybe if you could get a regular disc to load.

 

yer thats what i want to do but i want to know how to get that disc with out downloading it
thanx

 

Just get a copy from anybody. It the key not the disc. The discs are the same. You paied for the key.

And stop loosing the discs that come with you systems

 

i would but i dont know eny body who has one and did want it for the future

 

Maybe if you call Samsung and tell them you stepped on the disk and it broke they would ship you a new one just for shippig cost
