I bought a Toshiba laptop in USA and it came wtih Windows XP MCE 2005 and
now
I want to make partitions on the HDD and install only the MCE 2005 (
without
many others softwares like games, tool bars,etc..... ) because the
Toshiba
recovery Cd don't allow me to this procedures, only format all HDD in one
partiiton end install original HDD image. But I tried to enter my CD-KEY
using another MCE 2005 discs but it didn't work . Why ?? Can I use my
original key only in the Toshiba recovery CD ? How can I use my COA with
another windows MCE 2005 discs ??? It's possible ??

Someone can help me ??

Thanks
