The physical CD is not matched to any particular system. What's matched is
the key to the *type* of Windows version. Since you've got a COA on the
system, your Windows is OEM. It should say on the COA whether the key is
for Home or Pro. All you need to do is use the proper version for the key
on the system.
>From the way you worded your question, I'm infering that the PC's are all of
a like brand. If that's not the case, try to use the Recovery CD from the
same vendor as the PC.
Also, fix your clock...you're several hours fast.
