Windows Media "Center". Burn the backup cd.

I need to reformat a Dell pc with the ubiquitous Windows XP Media Centre.
Alas, the owner didn't burn the backup disk. Now the version of Windows is seriously corrupted (usb keyboard and mouse not installing)
And I can't see a standard XP SP2 Home disk allowing me to use a Media Centre COA code.
And WMC disks are not the easiest to get hold of.
One damnably good reason to burn the backup disk when you start up your Dell.
