Hey all,
Have been given a Dell Inspirion laptop that needs reformatting and has a serial key for XP home on the chassis. I have been unable to get hold of the original install CD from the owner and am not quite sure how to proceed now.
Am i ok to use any old XP home ISO available from torrents and then use my serial key to activate it or will that not work or not be allowed? If not how do i go about getting a re-install CD?
Primarily though how do re-install this laptop without breaking it or breaking the law?
