Mods, please feel free to edit or move thread as needed.

Well, I got an averatec laptop with XP MCE. Not surprinsingly, it doesn't include restore CDs. However, unlike HP/Compaq where you can make your own, there is no option to make your own restore CDs with Averatec.

I want to make a clean install, and I thought "I will download the MCE trial and use the key (COA) that came with the machine" Well, there is no trial available for windows media center :(

So, short of getting a MCE CD, what can I do?
If my only option is to get a MCE CD or DVD, would anyone who bought MCE be kind enough to send a copy of the disc to me? I pay shipping costs plus tip

Thanks


Alex
