Hi, i recently purchased fairly cheap operating system - windows xp media centre edition 2005 from a computer fair (brand new sealed)
i have installed it about twice on both of my home pc's.
my brother who is currently at university came last weekend and took it for his laptop. at that time i did not need it but i was having problems with my anti-virus software and while downloading i had lots of viruses. this changed my task bar, all my settings, all the colours and moved all my files.
as soon as i installed the software it detected many viruses with high threats but my computer WAS SOOOOO SLOW that i could not do anything.
i have only 512mb ram, which use to be used at about 240mb ram but now its 468mb, and my computer takes one minute to open my documents.
anyway, i thought it will be better just to start a clean frest start. so i want to re-install windows.
i have formatted my hard-drive but than realized i dont have the xp disk. my brother is due to come in easter holidays from uni.
so he sent me the disk via the internet, i downloaded it from his computer which took now less than 3 hours.
now i have a bunch of files which i do not know what to do with?
please help me install xp!!! there are 2 files called MRMPOEM_JA which is 732mb and is a IMG file.
the other file is MRMSD2_JA and is 335mb and is also a IMG file.
There there are another 2 sub files and CCD files which are all under 30mb.
i have burnt these to a DVD but how do i install the windows xp media centre edition???
I also have a CD key for it which conforms i have purchased it even though i had to phone microsoft as i have used it over 3 times.
please help me ASAP
THANKS!!!
