Do you have the Certificate of Authenticity and the Product Key for Windows
XP? If so, contact Microsoft Product Support Services with this
information. Tech support is free for Windows XP SP-2.
If not, go back to where you purchased the computer and get these two items.
I suggest that you ask any further questions about your operating system in
the Windows News Group, since this News Group is dedicated to issues dealing
with Microsoft Access, the database application which is a component of the
Microsoft Office productivity suite.
