Hello,
I have a dell laptop whose disk just broke. I have purchased a new Hard
Disk and installed it. This laptop was originally sold with windows XP home
edition, but I have two unused windows XP professional licenses from previous
laptops (that are not using the license...).
Am I allowed to use these product keys with my dell?
Second question: I've already tried to put in these product activation keys
into the requested box during installation (a winXP Pro SP1 installation
disk) and the product keys are rejected! These are valid licenses, so I'm
confused. How can I install windows again, since Dell did not provide me
with a CDrom of the software?
thanks for your help,
Martin
