Hi there,

I took over a laid off PC with an XP Pro licence sticker on it. I
cannot access the harddisk, but it's there, the orginial one. A guy at
Dell told me I have to get a hold of an OEM cd for XP Pro in the
original language (Norwegian), and he even said it was enough to get
a /copy/ of it, since I have the license no. . If this is true, I
wonder where I could get a hold of such a copy!

Any thoughts?
