[QUOTE="hexonxonx, post: 616483, member: 33873"] I was able to use the XP SP2 disk that came with an old HP laptop. It is simply labeled Windows XP SP2 and nowhere does it say it's a restore disk so it is a full copy. It had a serial number built in but Windows wouldn't activate with it, so I had to use the serial number on the bottom of the HP laptop. It activated without a problem. The computer that it came with was 2.5 years old. [/QUOTE]
