The "CD Key already being registered" will not be an issue for you.
What you DO need to consider is what, exactly, is on your recovery CDs.
Some of those CDs will re-create the files on the hard drive exactly as they
were installed from the factory.
Other recovery CDs, however, are little more than a tool that enables you to
access a hidden partition on the hard drive, where those files are stored.
In these cases, having a dead hard drive means that you can not restore your
system. If that is your situation, you will have to contact your system
manufacturer to get a set of CDs that will rebuild the hidden partition. [I
recently had to obtain a set from HP. The cost, including shipping, was
under $25.00)
Read the manual that came with your system.
