Hello,
I recently attempted to re-install Windows XP on my Dell Dimension 3000 using the i386 folder. I encountered an error, I no longer have the OS on the PC. I practise non have a Windows XP installation disc, so I can't use that. I've been trying to install information technology using a USB drive, simply that hasn't worked then far.
And then I take a genuine XP production key, merely no fashion to re-install it. Can someone please aid me?

That is the standalone installer for SP3. It is non the Bone iso. As far as I know there is no longer a legal site to download XP.

Concur with John.
AFAIK...at that place has never been a legal site to download Windows XP, other than possibly a site pertaining to Student editions/versions of XP.
Restore To Factory Defaults or recovery disks from Dell...appear to exist your only options without an XP install CD.

I already chosen Dell, and they no longer conduct recovery disks for XP, then that's out of the question.
What good would restoring the figurer to factory settings reach?

All that link does is provide a floppy startup for an XP install. A factory reset would install XP as when purchased. This would be your only option if the recovery partitioning is intact. When the computer starts to boot, Hold the Ctrl cardinal and tap F11. If the restore partition is intact, it will offset a recovery manager.

That is to run the CD installation on a reckoner that cannot boot from a CD.
Restoring to factory settings will return the calculator to the same state as information technology was when information technology came from the manufacturing plant. Information technology's necessary for the hard drive to still contain the recovery division for this to work.
If you can discover whatever fashion to borrow an OEM Windows XP CD, information technology is perfectly acceptable to use information technology with the product central belonging to your computer to re-install. Preferably information technology should be XP SP3, otherwise there is a long manual downloading and installing of service packs involved.
Edit: cross posted!

@Platypus is correct. Fifty-fifty better would be a Dell OEM XP install disk as that would have the SLP key. Because XP is no longer supported with security updates you may be better off installing a linux distro like Ubuntu or Mint.
