Bought daughter new laptop over a year ago for school.
There's no problem yet but I've noticed where they placed the sticker on the
bottom of the unit is such that it's basically "rubbed off" from using it on
her lap. I can make out (and have photographed) most of the label but a
couple of the letter/numbers are "iffy" to say the least.
How does one go about retrieving this info in case of the need for a future
re-install?
When I use the various "tools" supposed to tell you what the install key
used "now" was it's clearly not the same as the label on the case so I
assume that's because it's still the "factory install".
It's running Vista and she wants to keep it that way rather than install the
free upgrade to Win7 came with it (or rather had to send away for).
