Pre-installed XP Problem

[westie]

Just spoken to Dell, apparently the OS Reistallation disk that came with the PC when I first bought it, is a full version of Windows XP.

So I should be able to install straight onto the new harddrive.

Its a good job really as last night I took the plunge and bought 2 200gb Maxtor harddrives.

Thanks for all the replies, great help, excellent forum!!
