Then you likely have a recovery partition?

its a free software ..

Usually when you buy an OEM (gateway, HP, Dell) PC, they will come with either a recovery partition, or restore discs.

Did you have a D drive that was mostly full?

Download recuva, and see what it can recover. Though, without a windows disc or recovery partition, there's not much more you can do.

To be safe, you should choose to recover anything it finds.

Try using EASEUS, and see if it gives better results.

However, yes, you may be SOL without a windows disc.

ok well thank you for all your help i appreciate it alot. mite just have to geta new computer

If EASEUS doesn't work, you don't have to get a new PC. You just need to get a copy of XP. If you know someone that has a copy of your version, that will work to do a repair. If not, you just need to get a new XP disc. It's cheaper than a new PC. You just need to do a windows repair.
