My hard drive finally crashed. It's still kind of working, but I can't boot in windows anymore. I don't have a Win XP CD to do a repair with, I lost it or lent it to someone and never got it back.

I'm running Knopix LInux from a CD that I burned a long time ago, and I don't even know how to work Linux.

If I had a Win XP Pro boot CD, I could try a repair, but I don't have one. Who's in Ottawa that could help me?

Anyway, this really sucks. There's another expense I wasn't prepared to fork over.

I finally got hold of a friend that had the CD... yay, only had to check with like 4 people... They kept telling me that I can just download a copy. However true that is, I need to be able to go online, download it and then burn it. All things I can't do withouth a computer, or simply running knopix.
