Lost my cd of windows xp operating system

Can someone help me with the problem below.

A year ago, I bought a desktop computer HP with preinstallation OS (Microsoft XP Home edition). Now my PC has a problem because of which it requires reinstallation of the operating system. But to my surprise I couldn't find my cd of the OS that came through my PC.

Can someone tell me how I can reinstall my OS without the original CD.

Note: My PC at startup goes only until the first screen where Windows logo does not yet.

RSR, you can contact HP Customer Service to see if the discs are still available for your computer.  They will need the model number.  Here's a guide that will give you all the information you need.
