    They were shipped with win3x?, what do you define win3x as? if not a referrence to the whole 3.x series, such as we define windows 95/98 as the 9x series.
    there is not a windows version 3x, it would be 3.0, 3.1, or 3.11WFW.
    What CPU does the Amstrad have? MIPS?

    You might want to try ebay, or a local computer show.
    You will not be able to legally obtain it via downloading from the net, as it is illegal. So you might want to check into a online store that carrys older versions. ebay will for certain.

    Sorry, I should have mentioned it was windows 3.0. I did have the original floppy disc but it must have got lost ages ago. I don't really have the opportunity to visit computer fairs as I live in Spain and it is the English version that I want. I am reluctant to use e-bay or similar facilities as some years ago my credit card was hacked when using it on e-bay

    It would be illegal to download any retail software, including any Windows version.

    Check ebay.com out, they usually have them for sale cheap, or if there are any local computer shows in your area, go to them and ask for the software, someone might have original disks you can purchase.
    Not sure why you would even want those old version of windows, there is not much to them, If you find someone who sales them you might be better off getting Windows 3.11WFW, which would also permit networking.
