quick question,
when you buy a laptop or computer is it supposed to come with a CD inside?? my friend bought a laptop and it did, and i bought one too but no CDs came with it, and my old XP desktop didn't come with one either when i bought it.. |

HP/Compaq doesn't sell computers with OS disks. Instead, they partition your hard drive and load a backup from there.
