hey have a quick question...where could i DL a windows 98 cd? and any pointers on how to wipe the HD clean and reinstall the windows program? im sorry to ask but im retarded when it come to pc stuff. im trying to help my mom fix hers and to be blunt i fucked it up. so i figure if i wipe it all out it might work. i think it has like 30 programs running and spyware stuff all over the joint. sorry to bother you's but truly am happy someone might help.
thanks
Dan

At Frys Electronics (Outpost.com on the web) you can just buy the XP OEM for $99.00; you don't even have to buy anything else. Forget about Win98.

That's probably the upgrade version (home edition)...which is ok if you already have an earlier version of windows.

If it's not, then they are REQUIRED to sell it with a piece of hardware. You may get lucky if they sell it without the hardware but they are not supposed to. But hell, pick up spare powersupply, cd-rom, (something cheap) or that hard drive you need.

If you can get the education discount, also try JourneyEd. You can get the XP Pro Upgrade for $99 with no need to buy hardware. All you need is to send them a photocopy of your current student/faculty ID or Paycheck if you are Faculty with no ID.

Awesome deals for education...I got my Quickbooks Pro from JourneyEd for about $200 cheaper than retail.
