Hello all, I'm kinda new here but have looked around on the forums alot in the past. I recently received an older Dell Inspiron 2200 laptop from a friend and it was loaded with a ton of stuff I didn't need plus it was very slow. It appeared to not have a restore partition on the hard drive, and I didn't have the original restore disk that came with it. I did though have a windows XP disk I had purchased for a previous build and I figured I could just use the product code on the bottom of the laptop. Well as it turns out I was not able to use that code and now have a formatted laptop that I can not install XP on since the product code that came with the disk is being used. Does anyone have ideas of what I could do in order to install XP using the product code on the laptop? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Smalls
