Hey, harddisk went bad on one of my client's computers... They didn't order an reinstallation CD with there dell (dim 4400) or they lost it (I don't really know what happened to it...). So can I get a reinstallation CD for XP home? Somehow...
Actually, we just bought another dell with XP home. We didn't get a reinstallation CD, but since it has been less than a month (and I guess under warrenty), can I order one for $10 (I think that is how much it would've cost...)?
Even better, just call, email or chat and tell them you want/need it and they will send it overnight for free (or at least that is what they have been doing). I guess it is considered normal warranty service. Hopefully Home is the version on the other machine.

The 4400 shipped with a Windows CD, your client has lost it. When you get your CD (later in this post), you can use that one.

You can use any Dell XP CDs as long as the type matched (Pro vs. Home).
