Find your computer's User's Guide or visit the support website
of the manufacturer of your computer for information detailing
how to properly use your computer's Restore CDs. In most
cases, Product Activation is not required with preinstalled
versions of Windows XP since the Restore CDs will only
work with the original computer they were shipped with.
