My XP Pro installation CD is corrupt. The PC on which I want to install as an upgrade from Win2K cannot boot from it (nothing wrong with BIOS boot order), and I get an error when I try to read the CD on other PCs.
How can I get a replacement from Microsoft in the UK?

You sure, it's not CD drive?
Thanks, Shinma.
Broni - the XP CD is definitely flaky, rather than the CD drive on the PC. The PC will read and boot OK from other CDs in this drive; also I have checked this XP CD in other CD drives and have found problems reading it.
Have you tried cleaning the cd itself?
Several times - first thing I did when it wouldn't run / boot.Quote:
