1. If you already have a copy of Vista or XP.. Negative... If you have the key, but not the CD, you can obtain a copy, and use the same key, and its still legal
2. They are the same thing, except a DVD Burner is just one type of Optical Drive
 
Yea my current computer has windows xp with the disc and all so i am assuming that i can run the same disc on the new pc to upload the os and install xp on it through that way?

yes.. unless its OEM and you've already used it twice already.. then you call Microsoft and force one out of them...
 
Ok guys im sorry to say this but i never did get a chance of getting this computer last year and now i wanted to get it again, but since its been like 2 months already im assuming that there have been new developments for the parts and i wanted to get a NEW UPdated list of items that i would need to buy. Ofcouse the budged must be $800 - $999. And im trying to have it as a mid gamer PC...so help me out again please....

So far this is what i have picked....

OR This bundle with the 2 GB RAM, if this RAM is anygood, unless u can find me a cheaper and better one =]

CASE:

So now i basically need help with finding a good MOBO, PROCESSOR, and VIDEO CARD...and anything else that i forgot, plus any other good recommendations than the ones i chose so far...
