    your local computer store should be able to burn you a copy.

    bigger question.. WHAT OEM??.. Time.. DELL.. Acer.. Gateway.. packard-bell???.. they are all different... and your so called "valid key" isn't even going to work with the proper oem.. bet it only works with a new "from install partition" hdd image installer application.

    why don't you just pirate a full xp sp3 image and some generic keys instead of faffing about with OEM rubbish?

    as for going begging for pirated burns.. look at open source operating systems.. theres a surprise.. lots that will allow you to download stuff and burn images without even needing to install them (sabayon x86) or puppy booting from a usb.. you must have a working computer of some kind to post here ;)

    ps355528, edit your sig to conform to forum specs ASAP, yours is 372x212 pixels & 59,903 bytes.
    2. An image-only signature should be less than 50kb in size, and be at most 500 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall.

    ps355528 lets get a couple of things straight..... if you bothered to read my post you would have read that in fact i need the iso for xp home service pack 1.... i built my machine a a few years ago and have since lost the oem disk which is a system builders disk and my "valid key" is in fact valid. second never did i beg for a "pirate" copy but in fact asked if anyone knew where i can download an untouched .iso and also offered to pay someone for a backup for the time and effort to burn and mail a backup, which is in fact perfectly legal as long as i have a valid key. And thirdly i am perfectly aware of free operating systems since the machine i am using at this very moment is running ubuntu which is one of the many wonderful linux variants but my goal is to get my xp home machine back up and running if that is ok with you. i would suggest reading a post before commenting with such an opinionated manner.

    fredo, built machines don't use oem only the name brands do or is yours a modified name brand?
