    I have a HP Pavillion Desktop w5030in purchased in 2004.

    Just 2 days back it got affected by a virus and I decided to Format it and re-install Windows XP from original recvovery discs received with the PC.

    Half way through the recovery process, error on disk message popped up. :eek:

    And now my system is blank. :(

    I have got original WINDOWS XP HOME. Can anybody help me and tell what can I do now ?
