Here is my situation.
I have a computer. It was given to me. It has a legit copy of windows XP pro on it. I do not have a cd or dvd for windows XP pro. I am trying to find one so i can do a fresh install but I need to know what type of copy I have on this machine. How can I tell if this copy is an upgrade license, OEM, or retail? I have the serial number and it has 5 sets of 5 numbers XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX there is no OEM in the serial number. Can anyone help me?
Thanks
