.... is there any chance you can find another Windows XP O/S recovery
disk to buy?

I had a wonderful Gateway MX 6440 laptop that was corrupted by recent
updates to my Win XP SP2 system by Microsoft. I didn't realize I
didn't have a recovery disk, but only the drivers and applications disk
that I created, because I've never needed them in SIX years. I am in
mourning for this great system.

I know it's probably silly to ask this... but I had to anyway. :)
