OK I've wasted well over an hour of my life searching for this info on the web to no avail.
I did see somewhere this can be done, but no explanation how!
I know there's some very clever people at this forum, so no harm asking:
I have an old-ish laptop which is so full of crap it runs like an old dog.
I have copied off all my files & programs, and now I want to just wipe the hard drive totally clean & start again.
But I have lost the original Windows XP Home disc... (stupid, I know!)
Does anyone know how to re-install XP direct from the hard drive?
(Idiots guide required - not too much technical jargon!)
Thanks in advance for any help!
