Hi all.
Would appreciate help on this matter.
I have two computers and in the past I have bought two updates to WIN
XP Home. Now I want to sell one computer and buy a notebook mainly for
reasons of space.
I thought that I marked which software belongs to which computer, but
alas cannot find the distinguishing mark.
The comp. for sale is a rather old IBM Aptiva and think that the only
valuable thing in the deal will be the original disk of the WIN XP
update.
My problem is that I must distinguish which disk belongs to which
computer.
Is there a way to find this out? The software seller was no help and
so was the local branch of Microsoft.
Thanks,
Francisco

Franciso,

To be sure and since you will likely want to remove your personal data take
the PC you want to sell and attempt a repair reinstall of the OS. The CD
which will be accepted is the right one. You can take look before hand by
using a keyfinder from
