I'm trying to repair a Vista computer infested with malware.
Format and reinstall seems best choice.
Can I use the Key # for the machine (on a label on the machine) and an install disc for a copy that was already installed on a different computer and activated some years ago (and subsequently replaced with 7)?
Or does the copy on the disc somehow know what the key assigned to that disc is?
