I have the above that will not boot at all.

I have an external disc drive and have UltimateBootCD that will load Parted Magic which can wipe the machine but where do I find a ULCPC disc to reinstall XP Home ULCPC ?

I have the serial number on the base of the 110.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the HP website HP Support, enter the model number (complete) and look for a link that allows you to order a Recovery CD for your mini. The number you provided is not enough for me to look. Needs to be something like these:

Compaq Mini 110c-1000 PC series
» Compaq Mini 110c-1001NR PC
» Compaq Mini 110c-1040DX PC
» Compaq Mini 110c-1048NR PC

Compaq Mini 110c-1100 PC series
» Compaq Mini 110c-1100DX PC
» Compaq Mini 110c-1105DX PC
» Compaq Mini 110c-1130EK PC
» Compaq Mini 110c-1147NR PC
» Compaq Mini 110c-1150EB PC

Model # 110c-1010SA (could be DSA as I'm goin blind in me old age!!)

I don't see it listed following above link.

I found this site though. What should I get or should I bother as I can boot it from UBCD but still getting my head round the operations this CD can perform.

I found this at the UK HP Support site: Drivers and Downloads

Above link leads me to here and £32 lighter!!

Took me here: HP Recovery Kit which says

Enter the HP product code of the product for which you want to order a Recovery Kit. You can find this code on a sticker at the bottum or at the back of your HP product.

Which I did, then it directed me to the previous link posted. (which seems to have expired)

What happens if you click on Continue? When I did it took me here: https://www.best2serve.com/page/checkout_shipment

Seems right to me.

Yes, but is the user-guides.co.uk one a better option at £9.95 than the best2serve.com one at over £32?

I was hoping to find one for FREE!!

There is no way I can help you with either of those questions, sorry. If it were me, I'd buy one I'm sure of from the official HP site.

Good luck.
