OEM CD

It's usually possible to obtain a replacement CD from MS via the
fulfillment path. I've done so several times via phone, and a small
charge for the replacement CD.

Before I went this route, I always checked the CD/DVD using another
driver or P/C. Another possibility or method is to copy the CD contents
to a HD, and try an install or "repair" from there.

Now we just need a question to go along with your answer.

Is there a context for this post?

Keep in mind that many people don't see in their news readers what you
see in yours.

If you intend to reply to a post, you should reply to that specific post
rather than start a brand new, out-of-context thread. Otherwise, many
people will have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

No, it's simply you do not know how to post in a newsgroup. You don't change
the subject, and you leave at least some snippet of what the question was.

Were you born a HoopleHead, or did your just work your way down?

You certainly seem to enjoy name calling, a majority of your posts are not to
help, but to name call, grow up.

Maybe it's time for you to learn how to use your news client's killfile
or filter mechanism.

Well, my top-posting friend, either use it, or stop complaining about
other posters.

And, good luck.

I don't see how calling someone a Hooplehead to be degrading because
some fans of various bands call themselves (something)heads. For
example Jimmy Buffett fans are Parrotheads, and Grateful Dead fans are
Deadheads. So wouldn't a Hooplehead be a Mott the Hoople fan?
