uninstalled ie from laptop with win 8. how do i download chrome

Solution
Go to a friend and download Chrome Installer onto an USB key, then move it to your Windows box.

You did not uninstall IE, you just turned it off. Go to Control Panel, Programs and Features, Turn Windows Feaures On/Off, and return IE back,
