Dvd & Key Stolen
Jan 27, 2010
is there anyway I can get a replacement dvd from microsoft. i am on a fixed income so i can not just run out and buy a new copy of windows vista home premium. I'm using my copy of windows xp service pack 2 right now. also I have a problem with my computer where I can not boot up from the xp cd but I know the dvd drive is working because when its on the desktop it registers the cd. also i know the keyboard is working because obviously i typed this post. I have a gigabyte motherboard with amd athlon dual core 2.2.

I'm new to Vista so have no idea whats going on. I've partitioned by data to Drive M so that leaves C: to the OS and application programs. I'd expect about 5Gb to be OK for that but on the Partition that is C: 136Gb wide, I'm gobsmacked to find that 51Gb is in use and only 89Gb left free?

I have a gateway laptop p6860-FX. The problem is that I thought when I put a password on the BIOS that if the laptop was stolen the person would have to go thru alot of trouble to crack it. I just found out at Gateways site that all I have to do to clear the BISO password is 1) tun laptop off 2) set a the number one jumper to set three for a whole two seconds, retun the jumper back to set one and then tun the laptop back on BAM the BIOS pw is gone. CAN i do anything to the laptop to make it worthless if it is stolen? This is absurd in a whole two seconds my 1,300 laptop if stolen can be fully used as if it was never password protected.

So my laptop was stolen at the airport, and I'm sure there is no way I can get it back....but how easy will it be for them to try to get pass the password protection I had on it?
