I have a system with an OEM license key on a sticker on the bottom, but W2K is damaged, and I didn't get any CDs with it when I bought it.
The system is out of warranty according to Fujitsu, and they want an outreagous fee for the reinstall discs. I'd prefer not to pay what they're asking, plus I want a plain W2K Pro CD with no SPs or cusomization, which I wouldn't get from Fujitsu.
I've searched a couple BitTorrent sites, but the only versions I found were customized versions with components removed.
Other than eBay, Froogle, and CraigsList, does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!

The Fujitsu may have actually only offered a Recovery CD, that is not the same as a OEM CD.
Manufacturers quite often customise to suit there PC's.
It is feasible that there is a hidden partition on your Hard Drive which may contain the Original O/S Image

As stated above, go to disk managment and look for a small installation partition. Maybe this is a good time to upgrade to XP Tablet Ed so you can get ful fuctionality. Your machine will run it fine
