Windows XP Home help

[huxley]

This is not a request for warez, and I seem to of got myself into a pickle.
I`ve installed the vista beta on my Toshiba A60 laptop, it works pretty well all be it a bit sluggish at times. However I want to put xp home back on, and this is the problem as I`ve lost the factory disc to the laptop, do I take it all xp home discs are the same and its just the serial sticker on the underside of my laptop that makes it mine? If so how do I go about getting hold of an XP disc without having to purchase it. I`ve had a good look on the Microsoft site and can only find a six floppy disc option.
I`ve tried Toshiba and they wont give me a factory disc as the laptop is 2nd hand.
Thanks in advance.

Any Home Disc should work providing you have a valid product key which as you said should be that shiny MS sticker on the back

^ cool thats what I thought, where on earth do I get one or is there a downloader somewhere on the ms site like the one for vista?

Borrow one off a friend or download a version off bit torrent
just make sure it is home edition though
