Default win xp disk

Windows XP Disk or some call it Windows CD is an operating disk usually
supplied to customers who buy their systems from Dell or HP (or from
reputable computer resellers). You can also buy the CD from your local
shop [privately] that sells windows software packages or from Amazon.

Hope this helps.

Actually the CD's included with OEM PC's such as Dell and HP are more
commonly referred to as recovery CD's. An XP Disk or CD usually refers to an
actual Microsoft branded OEM or retail installation disk purchased at a
store or online retailer.

Don't talk rubbish. I have used Dell and HP systems for over 25 years and I
have actual operating System CDs. Any sensible person should avoid buying a
system that comes with a recovery CD.

I'm not talking rubbish, what you have and what OEM PC's come with are two
different things, if you've been in the field for 25 years you would know
that. Dell, HP, Sony, and most other big name OEM's do not include A Windows
XP disk, they include recovery media to restore the system to a factory
state, nowadays most don't even include that, the have a recovery partition
on the hard drive.

You are talking rubbish. If you have a recovery CD or DVD then you are not a
sensible person. All Dell and HP systems are so called OEMs but this does not
mean they don't come with their own OEM OS CDs

I can send you the photocopy or color image of the actual CD if you want to
amuse yourself with your hands inside your pants!

If not shut up and go to sleep.
