I lost my recover discs :(

Ok, I am having a problem re-installing windows.

I accidentally deleted a partition, and unfortunately it was the one my
operating system was on.

Thing is, I dont have the install disc for XP Home Edition because this PC
is over 4 years old and I lost track of it. I need a system recover disc or
something.
I cant even boot into windows, because I deleted it. Uh Oh.

What do I do?
How do I get another disc to clean install?

Just like if you lost all the keys to your house - you have to get a new set
of keys.

Your best option - and one guaranteed to work - buy Windows XP from
elsewhere.
