I have a six year old dell. The old installation of Windows XP is damaged beyond repair so I will have to reinstall it.
I have the dell serial number, service tag number, and most of the other relevant information. I even have the original Windows XP license key number printed on a label on the side of my computer.
However, the one thing that I do not have is the Windows XP installation disk.
What is the best way to resolve this? I have seen Windows XP disks for sale on ebay and craigs list. Can I purchase one of those and install it on my old computer? If I do that should I get a new license key from them or do I use my old one.
Help please........ thanks!!
