OT: Windows XP Home Edition Recovery Disk..

2016-05-16 Thread Joe D'Souza
She is actually a motor and uses this notebook only to order parts or lookup
videos on how to for some things she hasn't attempted yet on a newer car..
so was looking to fix that old notebook rather than buy a new one. She helps
me with my automobile related technical needs on my car and bike so offered
to try to fix her notebook for her..

Cheers

Joe

Hi,

Boot it on a Puppy Linux and harvest the files from the hard drive.

Then perhaps buy a new computer...

Puppy might work as a replacement, or maybe Xubuntu for an old computer.

OT: Windows XP Home Edition Recovery Disk..

2016-05-14 Thread Joe D'Souza
I know this is an old version but trying to help a friend restore a notebook
she has Windows XP Home Edition installed on a Gateway.

 

I was looking at options to create a recovery disk, but it looks like she
has misplaced whatever maintenance kit (CD's USB drives or whatever) that
she had got with her notebook.

 

Would anyone happen to have recovery disks for the same?

 

Contact me offline if you do.

 

Cheers

 

Joe
