Hi Everyone,
I have Windows XP OEM keys from some of my older computers over the last few years. Well, many years... but, I was wondering if there is a way to download the installation files as an ISO or to create an ISO file so I can use them on a new (well old, but new to me lol) Toshiba laptop and/or extra desktop.
I have two Dell OEM keys... one (or both) XP Home SP1 and one (possibly) XP Home SP2
I have one HP OEM key... and, I believe may be XP Pro SP2
The Windows 7 product key on the Toshiba laptop is worn off (I know... quite a shame..), so I wanted to use one of these XP keys on it. They are genuine and/or legal as I just kept the stickers before trashing the pcs they were on. Then, I actually still have the HP pc but the hard drive needs to be replaced so a new install is needed. However, as you know, I'm missing the media/software... I plan to replace the hard drive and use it for pc repair jobs.
Any ideas? All help is appreciated.
