hi
my motherboard disc is badly damaged & i just installed a
fresh copy of xp pro on my compaq presario but now it
won't boot up i think because of the motherboard drivers
are damaged.

Usually a motherboard manufacturer's support website has the latest drivers
available for download.

Hello
Any time you do a major hardware change to the inside of your computer with
XP install it will require a repair install and activation of XP.

Enter the BIOS of your MB and make sure the settings are correct then do a
repair install of XP and everything should be alright.
You will have to go to MS Windows Update site and download all the updates
again.

How to do a repair install.

Compaq is now supported by HP. HP's web site should have the drivers.
