Need replacement CD-ROM--Win XP

I have a Dell Dimension 2400 desktop
with XP Home Edition. Unfortunately,
the installation CD-ROM for the OS
has either been misplaced, or it did
not come in the first place.

I do have the service tag and account
number or customer number. The
computer was bought online directly
from Dell. Question: Is there a way
for me to order a replacement CD-ROM
without paying for an entire replacement
OS (unaffordable)?

    The Service tag is located on the side or back of your system near the bar code.

    IF you dont have that then as you said you would need buy the xp reinstall cd which would be WIN XP SP1(service pack 1)

    Normally, Dell will only supply replacements for missing or damaged software in the first 30 days.  You can call Dell and ask (won't  hurt).  If not, you are on your own to purchase a replacement.
