Need some help, i screwed up big.

okay so umm i just built a new computer, BUT i forgot to buy windows and im out of money, so i was wondering if there was some way to install a operating system without having the cd. i will buy the windows 7 in a couple of days like 15 or so days. i have the p67a-ud3 mobo and with the utility dvd, it says vista/xp on it, does that mean it has a trial operating system or does anyone know.

No such thing as a trial OS. Vista/XP means it has drivers for both.

You are going to have to wait until you can buy the OS, there are no trial OS's. Sorry
