place in the recovery disc and boot from cd this can be changed in the bios setting at start up for your computer by pushing the function key it asks for. or else if have a xp cd then just re install it again. but doesnt have to be one you bought unless it the exact same copy as the one you had before as your product key that will be some were stuck to your computer for xp will work only with the correct xp version :D.
