My brothers computer is jacked up. In the process off trying to remove the 69 infected files and 82 spyware apps I deleted SP2 to try a repair install of XP as the installshield wouldn’t load so I couldn’t install anti-virus software. Now the thing won’t boot and I really don’t want to re-format. I pulled out the hard drive connected it to my laptop via usb got all the virus and spyware junk off, now I need a boot disk to get it going again. If anyone has these especially the SP1 I would appreciate it. ---

well first, is it xp home or xp pro? if you still have access to a usable pc, you could dl any number of these and burn the isos to create bootable cds. [http://www.torrentz.com/search\_windows](http://www.torrentz.com/search_windows) ---

He’ll still manage to screw it up somehow though. I was just going to install the freedom security suite free from adelphia. It seems adequate. Also free. It’s XP home ---
