I bought a new hp computer already loaded with windows XP last year and had no problem setting it up. Turned it on and it started right up. My question is.....I don't have any kind of start up disk with Windows XP loaded on it so if my system were to ever completely crash, how would I restart windows XP? I know all about System Restore and I've used it many times and it works great, but what if I can't get my system up and running to use System Restore, then what do I do???
