Hello,
I recently purchased a Dell Precison 470 Workstation with dual EM64T Xeon
cpus (All the Media and documentation was lost but that's another story).
The system came pre-installed with Windows XP X64 Prof. edition but I wish
to run the 32bit Edition of Windows XP Prof. Edition, -NOT- the X64
version. The system cover has a legit Windows XP x64 Pro Serial Number.
Can I keep my Windows XP License for use under the 32bit version of
Windows XP?
I tried to install Windows XP Pro (32bit) from a friend's CD but the
installer wouldn't take my legit Windows XP X64 License.
Can I keep my X64 license for the 32bit version of Windows XP if I use a
Dell-Branded Re-installation CD?
Does anyone know what I could do? I wish to avoid buying a full XP Pro
license if possible..
Cheers,
Vince
