A friend asked me to have a look at his computer, that he recently bought saying that he couldnt get windows to start. When I tried starting the pc i got a message asking to insert the boot disk in drive A: Two questions how do I get a boot disk for XP Home, ( I have xp home myself)? and secondly why does he get this message, he recently bought the system with XP Home from a local store.

Please help, and many thanks.
