WTB: Windows XP Pro license

[cidley69]

Does anyone have a spare un-used license?

or, where would be the best store to buy windows xp from?

a friend recently gave me xp, so i installed it over my 98, but when i punced in the huge product key, it told me it has been instaled to many times.

and i lost me ancient 98 key, so now am screwed.

guys dont buy a new key. just call windows and tell them all u've done. if it was all legit and u didnt install on more than 1 computer then they will give you a number to punch in and guide u thru the installation. ive had this done many times and called microsoft many times for this number.

hope your this helps :goflames:

say i needed to buy the whole cd and all, where do you think the best (cheapest) place to buy one would be?

got any stores, online or in calgary, that you would recommend?

XP pro has much more robust networking capabilities, and some more advanced security features that home does not.
