Hi, My laptop has just broke and is out of warranty. It had XP installed on it from purchase. It was an Acer machine and has three CDs for recovery - the machine will never recover because I have taken it to bits now.
I have sawed out the piece of laptop that has the XP sticker/hologram on it.
But I can't install my copy of XP on my old desktop from the attic that I now have to use. This is because it is not an Acer laptop. Is there any way I can install my copy of XP on my old computer?
I can show you the smashed laptop and the sawn-out sticker/hologram if you like.
Please help me as I work a lot at home but need to use XP.
Thank you.
