Default Windows XP Pro


HI

I bought a second hand computer a couple of years ago and with it I got a CD with Windows XP Pro but I don't have the serial numbers to use it to re-format my computer. Can anyone suggest how I could sort this out?

Cheers out there

M

Hello, you could try the product key finder using the program from syschats' download section but you won't be able to get the key from the CD.

Regards

Martin
