Title: Need to borrow...
Post by: Bixxer Bob on April 09, 2011, 10:54:35 PM
A windows Vista 32 bit installation CD.  

My son-in-law junked his laptop. I've managed to save most of his data, but the Os is corrupt.  I installed Vista 64 bit but the laptop doesn't like it (doh!), needs 32 bit.  We have a licence number so everything is cosha, just need the disk to rebuild it, ta.

If you can help, please PM me.  Cheers BB :wink:

Drew a blank I'm afraid.  It's supposed to be there, in the cabinet but some body has half-hinched it already!

Found a copy on a file sharing site.  Standing by now for my laptop to die of multiple virus infections... :roll:

HI Ady, thanks for the offer and I'll keep it in mind.  The download worked and, after hours searching the net for drivers, I've got it all working except it won't play Blu Ray disks.  I can't find the proper driver for the combo drive and Windows insists on loading the basic DVD drive drivers.  It'll play CDs and DVDs ok though...

It's not a great issue, but I'd like to get it finished if I can.
