I'm trying to re-install Windows XP on an old PC which was having trouble,
but I lost the original "restore" disk my manufacturer (Toshiba) gave me with
my computer. My brother lent me his copy of Windows XP Pro and I am trying to
install it using the Product Key on the bottom of my laptop, but the code on
my laptop doesn't work with his Windows CD. My computer came with Windows XP
sans SP2 and his CD has SP2 on it; does this make a difference? Why won't my
pre-SP2 Product KEy work with his SP2 copy of Windows?
