My computer was recently fixed. But now i cannot get hanzi. I get prompted for a windows disc (no.3) which I donot have. Is there any way around this?

Which version of are you using? XP? If it is and you dont have the discs....in my experience you are stuffed!

Depending on how technical you are, you could install a linux distro on your computer along side your windows installation....Ubuntu is very user friendly and will support Hanzi out of the box...(providing the distro supports all your hardware)..

since when does xp come in three disks? Are we talking disc as in CD or disk as in floppy?

Good point, normally it asks for the XP service pack 2 disc (I think)
