Here's my story...
My girlfriend's laptop is 4 years old, and it's a Toshiba. XP has never been reinstalled on it, and it runs slow as hell. I know it also has to do with hardware, but I'm thinking that if I reinstall XP on her laptop it will be at least a bit faster.
Anyways...she doesn't have her XP CD from 4 years ago, and I have an XP Home CD from my old Dell. Can I just use that CD to reinstall XP on her laptop? I'll use her key from the sticker on the bottom of her laptop. It will be legal, right?
As far as I know, Dell only ships computers with OEM CDs, so I should be OK with doing this? Thanks for your replies.
