Re: preparing for the future, Upgraded Windows CD

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

If you have slipstreamed Windows XP Retail with SP2 you can use it for any
computer as long as you use the install key from another Windows XP Retail
CD. One install key = one computer - as always!

also, you can not use a Home key to install Professional etc.
