I have lost the original due to damaged surface [beyond repair] in a fire. Where can I get another XP Home Edition to replace the one that I had. The original activation code is still in my possession and my computer will not boot up at all. There is no doubt that I have to reinstall XP as a clean install but as I have stated it is lost. Any immediate replys would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Was the fire covered by insurance?

If so then the cost of replacing your Windows XP Home CD should be
part of the insurance claim.

Good luck
