A neighbor asked me to look at a very screwed up Compaq Presario V5000
series laptop of his. There were several things wrong and would need a
windows guru to sort out.

I said the best thing was to reinstall the OS, but he says there were no
DVD/CDs with it. But according to the manual there should be.

I'm not sure of the exact model, as I don't have it here now. It looks to
be a fairly basic model, with XP home on it.

I have had experience with 3 Presario laptops. Each came with an OEM XP CD.
On each I was able to reinstall from the CD for that machine.

Good luck..
