Re: Legal Installation of XP versus "Hard Disk Loading

Not unless you order a set of recovery disks from Dell.
It is illegal to sell a pc with windows installed without including a method
of recovery.

PS--making a copy of your OS disk DOES NOT qualify. Original media only.

I am hoping to get some help about legalities of installing XP on a
machine I buy then sell. If I buy a machine made by Dell (for example)
that has an XP COA on it but a hard drive that has been wiped or
contains the original users information, can I reinstall XP then sell
that machine as having XP installed as a convenience to a customer?
