I decided to reformat my comp because of the virus the computer kept running slower and slower very delayed.. anyway I have a burnt version of windows xp pro corporate edition and when I used it to boot up first my comp detected it fine and everything so I went through deleted my existing partition, created a new one (on both HD, I have 2) then formatted the C drive my primary HD NTFS or something.. not the quick one. Anyway I left the comp at 12% then came back about an hour later and the screen was black and it said "DISK BOOT FAILURE - INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER" ---- Now the thing isnt reading the disc properly and wont work. I have a legit version on XP home but i lost the cd key.. anyway I tried to use that, it got me as far as the beginning of setup then couldnt continue because of some missing files error. What should I do? get a new copy of windows or can i reformat and try again? why would it detect this disc before and not now???
