Hi, not sure if this is the correct forum to use or not but couldn't realy
work out where best to go! I have a Tiny COmputer which was running Windows
XP Home Edition. The hard drive became corrupt which meant i have had to
replace it. However, when i have come to reboot the machine i discovered that
the Windows XP Boot files were actually contained on the hard drive in a
hidden sector - on the one that was corrupted. So now I can't reload Windows
as I do not have the facility to reboot it even though i did purchase a
legitimate version of windows with the computer. Any suggestions as to how I
can get Windows up and running again on the machine short of having to
purchase a new XP disk?

Thanks for any help/advice you can give me!!!

The OEM (Tiny, in this case) is responsible for providing a means of
restoring the operating system. You'll need to contact their tech support.
