Hello everyone, I'm helping a friend clean up his daughters' computers. I've
done windows reinstall on one computer, which went fine. However, he's lost
the install cd for the other computer. The second computer does have an oem
sticker on it with an activation/product key (sorry can't remember what its
called).
Can I use the physical install cd from the first computer on the second
computer and activate it with that second computer's windows key? I hope I'm
making sense.
I'm wondering if I will just be told, during installation, that the key is
invalid.
