i want to use the reinstallation disc that came with my computer but someone else used it on another computer in my house do you think i can still use the disc on my computer since it came with my computer i heard the disc was a one time use

 

omfg are you kidding me? yes do it.

 

Actually kain i got a question for u...I have the disc that i got with my new comp and i bought a second computer and i formatted using the same cd key and it wont let me use the computer for more than 30 days cus it makes me register so it forces me to reformat every 30 days.

 

thats because you registered the key. if its the professional edition use fckgw-rhqq2 yxrkt-8tg6w-2b7q8 thats the one that i use

 

lol, dont look at me, your the one that fucked it up. i have used one single xp disc and installed it on numerous computers with the same key. just dont register nothing.

 

you're having that problem because its home edition, which sucks.

registration and activation, two different things.

 

what should i do my computer is slow like a nissan because i let it update at microsoft (updates for your computer are ready)
I want to wipe the hard drive clean because its a laptop used just for datalogging,,rom editing &occasional use on the internet to download small files its a dedicated turboedit computer i just want it to run as fast as possible

 

just reformat the hard drive

 

how

 

lol. maybee you shouldnt if you dont know what your doing.
