    I'm attempting a re-install of Windows XP Media Centre with a recovery disc but its scratched to bits so it won't work. System keeps hanging.

    Would anyone have a lend of an XP Media Centre Disc so I can get this thing done.

    Not interested in Windows 7 as the computer is an old spec and won't be up for the challenged of all the services windows 7 runs!

    I forgot to mention - its a Dell computer and I have a license key for it. So it's literally just the re-install disc I need. :)

    Cheers guys - it is specifically the Media Centre edition I need. I do have both Home and Professional version install discs - the license key for the particular machine is Xp Media Centre, so not as common as the others mentioned. But it would be great if you had a look.
