HELP with Windows ME

I recently had a virus and ended up having to complete clean my hard drive. Unfortuantely, I can't find my Windows ME disc...only the upgrade from WIN98. Is there a way to copy the registry/system/windows file from one computer to another? If so, where do I start? What if I just do an exact copy from one hard drive the other?

it wont work correctly because the hardware settings on the other computer will be different. Your only choice is to upgrade or find someone with the full install cd.

If you mean installing Win ME from the upgrade CD yes you can simply put the WinME upgrade CD in your CD-rom and during the installation Windows asks for a valid CD from an earlier version. Change CD's (2x) and you are able to install Win ME from scratch from your update CD.
