I recently had a gateway laptop that was destroyed. I was running a legal copy of XP on it. I got the box out today to install XP on my mac using bootcamp and saw that it said "will erase all information on your hard drive" and some other not very cool things. I checked the sticky quickly and saw that it says not to use disks from previous computers. I'm not sure how to proceed (without buying a complete new copy of XP). My girlfriend purchased XP for her computer with the ability to add it on up to 3 computers, but her disks are states away (but i have the product key code and can enter it legaly). Is there any other way to install XP w/o the disks or use what I have now? If it helps I also have an old Dell restore CD as well that says "use only with dell computers"
Thoughts? Suggestions?
