I got two opinions

Start again completely... Have Tiny given you a Restore CD or something like that?

You could use an FDisk style program to format the entire Drive and start again; unless you want to save files and that won't bring it back to Factory Settings. If you have a Windows XP Install CD; you can Format the Drive and then if you're quick you can pull out the plug; shutting down is not fast enough; after it has finished Formatting and before it started installin Setup files.

A bet they havent Tiny is part of the Time group they may be cheap but try and get in touch with the, they charge u £1.50 A minute, i doubt they would have sent u a sytem CD It is extra for it i think.
