Hi guys,
I want to reinstall windows on a mates acer laptop but I don't want to use their 'recovery disc' because its full of all the acer junk - the primary reason why I'm reinstalling windows in the first place...
I've got a clean windows vista disc that came with a machine I got rid of a couple of years ago, would this disc work with the license sticker that is attached to the bottom of the laptop? Is there a way to check before I waste my time flattening the laptop
I recall trying to do something similar with an xp instal a few years back but the clean disc I used was manufacturer specific and didn't like the license key I gave it!
Thanks.
