Hi guys,
This is totally legit I assure you. I've just inherited an old PC off my uncle which has an OEM copy of XP Home on it. I have the sticker on the side of the case with the serial etc but unfortunately my uncle lost the disc years ago so I have no way to reinstall it. The only copy of windows XP I have is XP Pro or a Dell edition of XP Home OEM. Can I wipe the HD and install either of these and then use the serial from the side of the box? If not, is there anywhere I can download a copy of XP Home OEM (but use the legit licence I have?)
Cheers, reps for any help.
