Try ebay (may not be a legal copy) or contact me directly. The CD alone can be a copy, it is a licence key that is required to install it.
If you already have a valid licence and only require a copy of the installation CD then contact me and I can burn a copy onto CD (SP1 or SP2 version) for a couple of quid.
If you require a licence then the cheapest places to buy OEM software are the online sellers, many will sell without hardware, especially those who only sell software!
The OEM version should not be available in the shops.

no function large difference, in person-friendly words the price, there are some licensing alterations, yet when your merely going to position in it and use it always no large deal. only one understand caution about OEM disks a retail OEM is what you want, do no longer purchase a branded OEM like a dell or hp OEM disk, until eventually you've that express workstation, even then it could be a headache. in case you want to ward off dropping money and save it on line retail OEM is a thanks to flow, and they'd contain a reminiscence chip or different piece of hardware for free to make the sale felony. one tip in case you do have a extra recent dell that must have homestead windows xp on it the you'll discover the dell homestead windows xp professional fix disk on ebay for lower than $20 now and again, and its only a homestead windows installation CD which will in person-friendly words deploy on a Dell, works large and in person-friendly words $20 on line strong success television

oem means original equipment manufacturer.
if you bought your computer new from a dealer you should have recieved the oem disk with the pc if it had pre-installed xp.
if you did not you probably have a pirated copy of windows.
i dont think you can buy an oem version exept if you are a manufacturer. you have to buy a dsp version (ie the one sold at the stores by themselves - not with a computer)

You can buy an o.e.m. copy legally, but you need to buy a piece of hardware to go with it. Usually you buy a mouse or something from somewhere like Dabs at the same time as you buy your oem copy.
